Urethral discharge, which men notice during sexual arousal, is a normal physiological phenomenon. It is provided by nature itself to moisten the mucosa of the penis. However, it is important to pay attention to the color of the discharge during lift. If they are transparent, then this is considered a health indicator. In the case of a change in color and consistency and the appearance of pain in this case, we need to talk about pathological changes and the presence of infections.
The health status of the genitourinary system can be judged by external signs of discharge. The initial change in their characteristics determines the degree of pathological processes occurring in the body. A man is able to determine all the signs himself and seek medical help in time.
Allocations to men are different and depend on individual characteristics. For some, they are abundant and occur regularly, for others, they are few or not noticeable at all. In any case, if a man is healthy, a clear fluid is released from the penis when he wakes up, which is absolutely normal and is not a sign of any abnormality.
The medical name for an erectile secretion is the urethra. The fluid that comes out of the urethral canal before sexual intercourse or just before ejaculation is called pre-ejaculation. This mucus performs the necessary function - neutralizes the acidic environment in the vagina, which is harmful to sperm. This prepares the environment needed for fertilization of the egg.
Pre-ejaculation contains active sperm, and even after shallow penetration, egg fertilization can occur.
The secretion of secretory fluid occurs not only before sexual intercourse, but also in the morning, which is accompanied by an increase in the level of testosterone - the male sex hormone. Spontaneous ejaculation, or emission, most commonly occurs in adolescents and men who have not had sexual intercourse for a long time.
Slight transparent discharge in men occurs during bowel movement. This phenomenon is called bowel prostaturia and occurs due to strong tension of the abdominal muscles.
Natural body secretions:
The male reproductive system is a complex mechanism, an important part of which is the discharge during erection, which in turn is divided into two types: physiological and pathological. If the former are considered the norm and the patient does not need medical intervention, the latter require close attention and urgent measures to avoid irreversible consequences.
Allocations of a pathological nature are of infectious and non-infectious origin. The former are divided into specific ones, which are provoked by sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and nonspecific ones, which arise when exposed to harmful microorganisms and bacteria. These include chlamydia, ureaplasma candidiasis, herpes and others.
Non-infectious causes include allergies, trauma to the urethral mucosa, and narrowing of the urethra as a result of exposure to chemicals.
Such urethral discharge occurs at regular intervals and is distinguished by the following features:
Depending on the state of the male immune system, existing diseases and the type of infectious agent, the secretions will be different, which helps determine their nature.
The main cause of white discharge in men is candidal urethritis, which is characterized by the following symptoms:
The discharge shown can be observed in mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis and chronic prostate, which are characterized by a false desire to go to the toilet, incomplete emptying, accompanied by burning sensation, decreased libido and strength.
Advanced inflammation of the prostate is most often the cause of not only sexual dysfunction, but also the inability to have children.
They consist of mucus, dead particles of epithelium and leukocytes, is a characteristic of a yellow or yellow-green color, which indicates the presence of diseases:
Bad breath during an erection is due to an infection in the genitourinary organs. Neglect of hygiene procedures should not be ruled out. Smegma, by accumulating, becomes a favorable environment for harmful bacteria. Their rapid reproduction leads to inflammation of the head of the male organ and the skin under the bridle, causing a pungent odor.
The same manifestations are observed in men suffering from diabetes mellitus and metabolic disorders.
Traces of blood in the semen, which is released in the form of red fibers, are a sign of an infection of the pelvic organs. The amount of discharge depends on the duration of the disease. Over a long period, the mucous layer collapses, exposing small capillaries, which, with the slightest impact, begin to bleed.
There are other reasons:
Based on external signs of discharge, it is impossible to diagnose accurately. If you suspect a pathology, you should undergo an examination, after which, based on the results obtained, the specialist will prescribe the necessary treatment. Then it will be possible to preserve men's health and avoid irreversible consequences.
