Dr. Tran Van Kien, Department of Andrology and Sex Medicine, Hanoi Medical University Hospital said once received a 17-year-old male to the hospital for examination with the reason that his ejaculation was as lumpy as a grain of rice.

“For the past year or so, the patient has noticed that each time he ejaculates, the sperms become clumps like rice grains, and a grain of sauce is still iridescent like pearls. Fearing that I might have some disease, I went to get checked out, “said Dr. Tran Van Kien.

Through the examination of the male patient’s external genitalia, the doctors did not detect any abnormal signs, even the exploratory tests showed normal results, semen analysis, and liquefaction of sperm. are all normal.

This male specialist explains, after each ejaculation, old sperm will be released, new sperm from the testicles move to concentrate in the seminal vesicles, at the seminal vesicles thanks to a protein called Semenogelin I So the sperm will be frozen here, after a few days will gradually liquefy.

“If you ejaculate with a thick frequency, the clumps of sperm that have not yet liquefied will be released. That explains why ejaculate with a high frequency of sperm will be clumped, ”said Dr. Tran Van Kien.

Semen is a product released from the urethra of the penis when a man has an orgasm (maybe after sex or after masturbation), normally semen will be milky white containing sperm. Semen has a high viscosity and will gradually dilute after about 30-60 minutes.

However, some men develop a condition where the semen after ejaculating is clumped, also known as “pearl” ejaculate.

Ths. Doctor of Andrology Pham Minh Ngoc, Hanoi Hospital of Andrology and Infertility He said that he had received many patients who came to the clinic with symptoms like this. Accordingly, clumped semen/sperm clumping is a condition in which semen secreted during sexual intercourse by a man ejaculates into small, white, mixed with tiny particles. as fine as bran powder.

In addition, clumped semen is sometimes dark yellow, brown, or red.

The smell of clumped semen is also very different from normal, has a bad smell, fishy, ​​causing discomfort, the fluid is thread-shaped, men will sometimes feel painful urination, difficulty urinating. Semen/sperm clumps affect the viscosity of semen, making it easier for sperm to die and difficult to move, reducing the ability to conceive.

According to Dr. Tran Van Kien, the causes of semen clumping in men can be mentioned as: Not ejaculating for a long time; Inflammatory diseases of the urinary tract – genitourinary; Prolonged stress, psychological disorders; Altered semen environment and excessive masturbation habits.

Although the case of a young man who ejaculated … ‘pearl’ came to the hospital for examination at Hanoi Medical University Hospital, he did not have any dangerous complications, but Dr. Kien emphasized that men do not abuse masturbation, masturbate with too much frequency. a lot of. Because this behavior can affect the physical and mental health, especially the reproductive health of the patient.

Accordingly, if men have clumped semen, it not only affects the physiological health of men but also reduces the ability to father children. Accordingly, if a man has a prolonged condition of clumping semen, it can cause infertility – infertility because most sperm are dead before ejaculation.

In some cases, sperm clots are a sign of many dangerous male diseases, requiring early examination and timely treatment. In addition, accompanying symptoms such as pain and discomfort also greatly affect the married life as well as the health of men.

When detecting abnormal signs in semen, men should actively examine to diagnose the exact cause. Depending on the cause, the doctor will prescribe appropriate treatment such as lifestyle changes, using medical regimens or taking drugs to treat inflammatory diseases or supplementing with necessary nutrients, exercises… “, said Dr. Tran Van Kien.

The treatment of sperm clots requires the patient to approach the right method and have patience. These are important factors that determine the outcome of treatment.
