What does male sperm taste like?

Male sperm is the key to the genetic inheritance of offspring. Its main component is protein, which can be digested by the human body. After the sperm enters the vagina, if it does not combine with the egg within three days, it will be discharged through the vagina. Normally, male sperm has a mild smell, with the smell of chestnut flowers. However, semen with a stronger smell may be a sign of prostatitis or seminal vesiculitis, which male friends need to pay attention to.

What does normal semen smell like?

In fact, both men and women who have had sex will find that the smell of semen is actually very strong, and we can also judge whether our body is normal by the smell of semen. So what is the smell of normal semen? Experts say: The smell of normal semen is emitted by a chemical called arginine after oxidation, which is very similar to the smell of chestnut flowers. Arginine is one of the many important components contained in prostate secretions.

There is actually a reason for the pungent smell of semen. After we understand the smell of normal semen, we can make a comparison. In fact, men's semen has a special smell. Once the smell of semen changes, it means that prostatitis has changed. The so-called change means that there may be a mutation. In layman's terms, men's health is threatened. Experts say that semen is a mixed liquid. In addition to sperm, other semen components are composed of prostatic fluid, epididymal fluid, seminal vesicle fluid, and various secretions of the urethra and vas deferens. The smell of semen comes from these liquids. If there is any strange smell in semen, there may be problems in these places.

In addition, arginine is one of the important components of prostate secretions. The oxidation of arginine must be involved in the seminal vesicle fluid. The prostate fluid obtained through rectal massage generally does not have the smell of natural ejaculated semen. It can be seen that the smell of normal ejaculated semen comes from the prostate, but it is only emitted with the participation of seminal vesicle fluid. Therefore, if the smell of semen is abnormal, then the most likely cause is seminal vesiculitis and prostatitis. Both of these diseases are very harmful, and it is recommended that everyone should pay attention to them.
