"The decline in male sperm quality is very serious now, but people pay no attention to it.". The importance of sperm for men is self-evident. If sperm abnormalities occur, they may lead to male infertility. However, some men now have the phenomenon of yellowing their sperm. Will this phenomenon affect male fertility?
What is normal sperm like?
"Normal newly ejaculated sperm is viscous, and the sperm is milky white with grayish white clots. After 10 to 20 minutes, the clots will liquefy themselves, turning into translucent and turbid thin mucus.". If the semen turns yellow, it may be caused by too little sexual activity. The semen of men who have not ejaculated for a long time will be light yellow and relatively sticky.
Does yellowing of sperm affect male fertility?
Whether yellowing of sperm can affect fertility is the reason to see if it causes yellowing of sperm. The causes of sperm yellowing can be pathological or non pathological. "Non pathological" refers to the long-term absence of sexual activity in men, resulting in a relatively yellow semen color.
"The yellowing of sperm may also be caused by diseases such as prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis. At this time, yellowing of sperm can affect fertility. Experts say that yellowing of sperm should not be alarmed and should be promptly investigated by the hospital.". If it is caused by pathological factors, it should be treated promptly to avoid affecting future fertility.
It can be seen that the symptoms of sperm yellowing are not so simple, and if not handled properly, it can lead to male infertility. Therefore, it is hoped that if men have such symptoms, they should undergo relevant examinations in a timely manner and then receive targeted treatment.
