How often is normal for a man to ejaculate?

Sex is the most wonderful thing for couples. Although sometimes you will sweat a lot, the comfort after sex is something that nothing can give you. Especially men seem to have a higher pursuit of sex. Not only do they want their female partners to be beautiful and sexy, but they also want to last a long time during sex. So, how often is it normal for men to ejaculate?

Normal sex usually occurs two to three times a week. This is long-term, relatively harmonious sex.

From a biological point of view, the birth of a new life is the moment when the sperm and egg combine. For the success of this moment of combination, semen plays a decisive role.

The semen referred to in modern reproductive physiology is composed of two parts: the fluid secreted by the seminal vesicles, prostate, and bulbourethral glands, and the sperm produced by the testicles and stored in the epididymis.

The normal male ejaculation volume is about 1-6 ml, which contains 200-500 million sperms. As the carrier and guardian of sperms, the primary task of semen is to safely transport a certain number of sperms to the female reproductive organs to obtain the opportunity of conception. Semen is weakly alkaline and can neutralize the acidic substances in the vagina, which is beneficial to the activity of sperms. Semen has the function of providing sperms with energy and nutrients to ensure normal reproductive activities. Therefore, we can call semen the messenger of life from men without exaggeration.

However, in daily outpatient clinics, many people are often confused about common sense issues such as semen volume, concentration and color, causing a lot of unnecessary panic.

The question of “more or less”

A man has semen in his body from the first time he ejaculates to the end of his life. It is impossible to calculate how much semen a man has. If he has nocturnal emission, masturbates and has sexual intercourse frequently, he will consume a lot of semen. However, the seminal vesicle, prostate and bulbourethral gland are the same as other glands in the body. As long as they function normally, they will secrete continuously, so semen will not be exhausted. Some young men masturbate frequently, once for several days in a row or even several times a day, which will significantly reduce the amount of semen. The reason is very simple. Although the human body has a strong ability to produce sperm and semen, it can usually be replenished 1-2 days after ejaculation, but if ejaculation is too frequent, "supply cannot meet demand" will still occur. ". This situation of too little semen is certainly not a disease, and there is no need to worry. Prolonging the interval between ejaculations will cure it without treatment. However, if the amount of semen is too little each time, it is pathological. In cases of male infertility, infertility caused by too little semen (less than 1 ml) accounts for about 2% of the total cases. Too little semen may be caused by abnormal testicular function, endocrine disorders, seminal vesicles, prostate diseases or urethral stenosis. This type of too little semen is easy to identify. Just abstain from sex or masturbation for 5-7 days and then ejaculate again. If the semen is more than before, there is no disease, otherwise it is pathological too little semen.

So, is too much semen good or bad? Similar to too little semen, too much semen, such as more than 7 ml, is also a pathological condition, mostly caused by seminal vesiculitis. The essence of too much semen is too much secretion or exudation of semen, while the total number of sperm does not change. This will obviously cause the density of sperm in semen to decrease, affecting the chance of conception. Excessive secretion of semen will interfere with the activity and function of sperm due to pathological factors such as inflammation. In addition, too much semen will cause a large number of sperm to be lost from the vagina after sexual intercourse, reducing the chance of conception. Therefore, the more semen, the better.
