What causes sperm to be sticky?

Some men don't know why their sperm becomes sticky. Seeing this phenomenon, men are really worried. Is this caused by some disease? What are the factors?

Long time no sex

It is not used for ejaculation or ejaculation; if there is too much semen or it stays in the body for too long, the semen will become sticky, but this phenomenon is temporary. With sexual intercourse, the semen will return to its original liquefied state just after ejaculation, and immediately form a gelatinous state. After 5 to 20 minutes, it will liquefy into a watery state again.

prostatitis

If you have prostatitis, the process of semen reliquefaction will be incomplete, resulting in viscous semen. You need to go to a regular hospital for treatment in time.

Infertility experts say that, under normal circumstances, normal male semen should be thick when it is just discharged from the body, but it has a liquefaction time. Liquefaction within 40 minutes is convenient for sperm activity. However, if it does not liquefy after 40 minutes, it is poor liquefaction, and the semen is thick, which has a great impact on fertility. Generally, the viscosity of semen is related to prostate, epididymis and other diseases.

Thick semen will restrain the activity of sperm, making it impossible for sperm to be transported to the cervix, losing the opportunity to combine with the egg, causing male infertility, and thus making it impossible for the woman to get pregnant. It can be seen that thick semen is not a good thing for men, as it will affect the motility of sperm and lead to infertility.
