What causes sperm to clump?

When there is an abnormality in male sperm, it is necessary to improve it in time to avoid causing other problems in the body. When male sperm is often in clumping form, it has a great impact on fertility. If this problem is not treated, the sperm clumps will become more serious and the treatment will be very complicated. So what is the matter with sperm clumping? Let's introduce it in detail below so that everyone can have some understanding.

What causes sperm to clumping?

Normal male ejaculated semen is in liquid form, but it will solidify into a jelly-like state immediately, and then liquefy into a watery liquid after about 10-30 minutes. This process is called semen liquefaction. If semen is still in a lumpy state after more than 30 minutes of discharge, it is called semen non-liquefaction, which can lead to male infertility.

The secretions of the prostate and seminal vesicles are involved in the coagulation and liquefaction of semen. The coagulation factors produced by the seminal vesicles cause the semen to coagulate, while the semen liquefaction factors such as protease and lysozyme produced by the prostate make the semen liquefy. Once the seminal vesicles or prostate become inflamed, the secretion of the above factors may be impaired, resulting in an increase in coagulation factors or a decrease in liquefaction factors, forming a semen liquefaction syndrome. Therefore, when a man has semen liquefaction, he needs to check the prostate, etc.

1. The reason why semen does not liquefy is related to infection by pathogenic microorganisms: if various microorganisms such as bacteria and protozoa invade the male reproductive tract, it is easy to cause a series of symptoms, one of which is semen not liquefying.

2. Urine irritation: Urine contains a variety of acidic and alkaline chemicals, which can easily cause uric acid to reflux into the prostate, induce chronic prostatitis, and over time cause semen to not liquefy.

3. Anxiety, depression, and fear: Experts have found that 50% of patients with semen liquefaction have anxiety, depression, and other excessive tension symptoms, which are not good for men's physical and mental health, and will also lead to physical diseases in the long run.

After understanding the reasons for sperm clumping, men should improve this situation by changing their diet and emotions. This is very helpful in alleviating sperm clumping. Men should release their own stress and avoid binge eating. At the same time, they should reduce the choice of greasy food. This will have a good effect on improving physical problems.
