Is yellow ejaculated sperm serious?

Normal male ejaculation is translucent and egg white-like in color. Yellow semen is caused by long periods of abstinence and high concentration of semen. It is a temporary phenomenon. However, long-term yellowing of semen is usually a symptom of prostatitis. It is best to have a checkup. Prostatitis can cause ejaculation pain and penile pain in men, and can also lead to infertility.

1. What causes yellow sperm?

Normally, normal male semen is translucent and milky white like egg white. So what is the reason for yellow sperm? Yellow sperm can be divided into physiological and pathological causes. Physiological causes of yellow semen include no or long-term sexual intercourse and frequent consumption of spicy and greasy food. Pathological factors such as reproductive infection, sperm abnormality, and sperm agglutination can also easily cause yellow sperm.

1. Abstinence for too long: If a man does not have sex for a long time, the concentration of semen will be higher, and the semen will naturally have a temporary yellowing phenomenon.

2. Eating irritating foods: Sour, spicy, hot and fried foods can easily cause sperm to turn yellow. It is better to eat more light vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C.

3. Reproductive infection: Prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis in men can also cause yellow sperm. When the prostate and seminal vesicles are inflamed, bacteria will stimulate the semen in the semen, thereby reducing the quality of semen and causing yellow sperm.

4. Sperm abnormality causes yellow sperm: Abnormal sperm includes abnormal shape of head, body and tail, or mixed head and body abnormality. When the abnormal sperm in semen exceeds 20%, the semen will also turn yellow.

5. Sperm agglutination: Due to the presence of sperm antibodies, sperms agglutinate themselves, causing the seminal vesicles to not liquefy. If this continues for a long time, sperms will turn yellow.

2. Does yellow sperm affect fertility?

Does yellow sperm affect fertility? Yellow sperm may affect fertility. If the yellow sperm is caused by not having sex for a long time, it is a physiological factor, which will only last for a short time and disappear soon, and will not affect fertility. However, if the yellow sperm is caused by pathological reasons, such as prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis and other diseases, it will affect physiological functions and fertility. In severe cases, it may lead to infertility and needs to be treated in the hospital.

Therefore, it is necessary to confirm the cause of yellow sperm in order to know whether it will affect pregnancy. If the yellow sperm is caused by disease, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time, so that it can be cured earlier and will not affect fertility.

3. Is yellow semen normal?

The causes of yellow sperm can be divided into physiological and pathological. If the yellow sperm is short-lived and the next ejaculation is normal, it is often caused by long-term non-ejaculation. The semen is generally light yellow. Clinically, most cases of yellow sperm are caused by male diseases or inflammatory factors. Prostatitis, bacterial prostatitis, and seminal vesiculitis can cause yellow sperm, and severe cases can lead to male infertility.

It is important to note that long-term yellow sperm is an abnormal phenomenon. Male friends should not take it lightly and must go to a regular hospital for treatment. Usually, you should abstain from smoking and drinking, and eat less spicy, greasy and other irritating foods.

4. What to do if sperm is yellow

1. Eat more calcium-containing foods: such as milk, sweet almonds, kelp, fresh fish, coriander, mushrooms, mustard greens, pork rib soup, soy products, raisins, seaweed, shrimp skin, kelp, day lily, etc.

2. Supplement fructose: The activity of sperm is related to the amount of fructose contained in the seminal vesicle. If the fructose content in semen is low, it is easy to cause dead sperm. Fructose is particularly rich in honey and various fruits, such as pears, apples, grapes, pineapples, and sweet oranges.

3. Eat more fruits and vegetables: Fruits and vegetables containing vitamin E and various trace elements can resist germs that damage sperm. Adding 600 mg of vitamin E per day can improve sperm motility.

4. Adjust your lifestyle: Have a reasonable work and rest schedule and avoid staying up late. Do not smoke or drink, and eat less spicy food. Do not have frequent sex and quit the habit of masturbation. Pay attention to balanced nutrition in your daily diet, and eat light food.
