Sperm has foam_What is the reason for ejaculation foam

Sperm can also reflect whether there is a problem with a man's reproductive system, so when a man reaches orgasm, he should also carefully observe the existence and appearance of sperm. For normal men, sperm should be dark white and free of other foreign matter. However, when some men observe sperm, they find that there is a foam-like substance in the sperm. What is the cause of this?

It may be caused by prostatitis

Causes

Only a few patients have an acute history, and most of them present with chronic, recurrent symptoms. The main pathogenic factors of type I and type II prostatitis are pathogenic infection, mainly Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Proteus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pathogens invade the prostate with urine, causing infection. Pathological anatomy confirms that prostatitis lesions are generally limited to the peripheral zone, where the glandular duct opens in the posterior urethra in the opposite direction of the vertical line of urine flow, which is easy to cause urine reflux, while the glandular ducts in the central zone and transitional zone are consistent with the direction of urine flow, and are not easy to be infected.

The prostate has as many as 15 to 30 ducts opening on both sides of the seminal colliculus, and the prostate epithelium has a strong secretory function. The gland is small but the secretory function is strong, and the ducts are narrow, which causes the prostate to be compressed and blocked under the influence of various factors, which can easily cause congestion and secretion accumulation, thus creating conditions for infection. This is also the histological basis for the easy recurrence of prostatitis. Excessive sexual activity, excessive masturbation, long-term sitting, riding a bicycle, riding a horse, alcoholism, excessive spicy food, colds, etc. can all become its inducing factors.

The pathogenesis of type III prostatitis is unknown, and its etiology is very complex and widely debated. Most scholars believe that its main causes may be pathogen infection, urination dysfunction, psychological factors, neuroendocrine factors, abnormal immune response, oxidative stress theory, lower urinary tract epithelial dysfunction, etc. Type IV prostatitis lacks research on its related pathogenesis, and may have some of the same causes and mechanisms as type III.

Urine reflux in the prostate may be of great significance to the occurrence of various types of prostatitis. Recent studies have found that uric acid in urine not only stimulates the prostate, but can also precipitate into stones, block the gland ducts, and serve as a shelter for bacteria. These findings can explain that prostatitis syndrome is actually a common manifestation of multiple diseases, and the clinical manifestations are complex and varied, which can produce various complications or resolve on their own.
