Sooner or later, men have questions about their health. Erection problems can occur at any age. Nowadays, professionals are increasingly confronted with complaints about the erectile condition of young people under the age of 25. It can be seen from this that the problem has significantly "rejuvenated". Erectile dysfunction occurs for a variety of reasons: stress, overwork, cardiovascular disease, unhealthy lifestyle, hormonal imbalance, unhealthy eating. A man alone is able to identify some pathologies - based on the nature of the secretions that occur during an erection. After all, timely help to the doctor guarantees a complete painless treatment.
Normal secretion in case of excitement
In men, emptying the penis during arousal, before intercourse, is completely normal. The release of secretions during stimulation of an erection is called libidinal urethrorhea in medicine. The amount and quality of such secretions can be completely different, depending on the characteristics of a particular man’s body.
Normally, in case of an erection, clear fluid should come out of the urethra. This liquid is of medium thickness. The amount and duration of such a secret depends on the degree of erection and excitement. That is, the stronger the excitement and desire, the more fluid can be observed before intercourse begins. It is important to know that even in men, such secretions contain a certain amount of sperm. This means that pregnancy can occur even with interrupted intercourse.
So the normal discharge during an erection is as follows:
- Urethrorrhea;
- Smegma;
- Semen.
As is already known, urethrorhea is a secret that is excreted with some degree of excitement. It is worth noting that libidinal urethralrhea can be emptied in the morning, after waking up. This is also considered the norm in men. Smegma is a secret secreted by a gland on the head of the penis. These secretions are not present in men who pay close attention to personal hygiene. Smegma is made up of fat secreted by the sebaceous glands. The secret accumulates under the skin of the glanis penis. It is easy to rinse off in the shower and a small amount is the norm.
If you do not follow the rules of personal hygiene, the smegma will actively stand out during the erection. It is a fertile soil for the growth of many pathogenic microorganisms. And such a pathogenic microflora can cause a variety of complications in intimate life. During ejaculation, sperm is excreted from the urethra. After that, the erection usually weakens and disappears completely. Sperm contains large amounts of sperm, the secret of the gonads. The color of this secret is usually white. If there is no sperm emptying during intercourse, this indicates serious potential problems. Generally, ejaculation should occur no later than one hour after the onset of intercourse.
Pathological discharge
Sometimes too much secretion from the urethra during an erection may indicate some abnormalities. Some diseases are diagnosed precisely based on the nature of the abnormal secretions. In fact, very often there are no other symptoms in men. That is why it is very important for young people to pay attention to all kinds of change.
Thus, secretions outside the normal range may indicate the presence of such diseases:
- Sexually transmitted diseases;
- Inflammatory processes in the urogenital system;
- Urethritis;
- Inflammation of the prostate;
- Balanitis;
- Oncological diseases;
- Complications after penile trauma.
In men, a mysterious secret during an erection may be too narrow or, conversely, excessive. Furthermore, the color and consistency of this secret play an important role in pathology. Generally, too dense or liquid discharge is considered unacceptable. In this case, the color should not be white, but yellow, gray, greenish hue. Contaminants of blood or pus may be present. If the secret is transparent but thick and drawn, we can talk about the presence of diseases such as mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis, chlamydia.
In this case, too many leukocytes are detected when the laboratory tests are handed over. If the disease is in severe, advanced form, pus is observed in the secretions. In the presence of a disease such as chlamydia, mucus builds up on the head of the penis and sticks to the foreskin.
Uncommonly, abnormal secretions during erection occur in the background of other diseases:
- Candidiasis;
- Staphylococcus aureus;
- Streptococcus;
- Escherichia coli.
At the same time, young people complain not only of abnormal discharge during an erection, but also of itching, burning, and swelling of the tissues of the penis. Abnormal secrecy does not always indicate the presence of problems in the urogenital system. Inflammation of the genitals, both external and internal, can occur in the background of allergies, narrowing of the urethra, chemical poisoning, and mechanical action on the mucous membranes of the genitals. As soon as a person discovers any pathology, it is important to see a doctor in time. The specialist will prescribe the most appropriate treatment. This will help you avoid possible complications.
