Ejaculation in men during awakening is a natural physiological reaction of the body. Normally, they are transparent, odorless, quite thick and sticky. The amount of liquid depends on the characteristics of the human reproductive system and can vary from a few drops to 4-5 mg.
Partners who do not plan a pregnancy should know that the mucous contains active sperm. Therefore, protective equipment should also be used during sexual intercourse.
Normal secret clear color, no unusual taste. The texture is of medium density. There are no impurities in the secretions.
The natural secretions that appear during intimacy are called semen. It consists of gametes and mucus from the penis. It has a thick texture and a white shade. It comes out of the penis after sexual release.
What is considered normal
After a night's sleep or during excitement, the head of the male penis secretes a little clear mucus, which in medicine is called libidinal urethrorrhea. The function of this lubricant includes several important tasks. So, it facilitates the gliding of the penis when it enters the vagina during sex. Another useful property of this viscous liquid is the ability to neutralize the acidic environment that is harmful to spermatozoa. With the help of the release of pre-ejaculate, nature has ensured that the remains of uric acid are washed from the walls of the urethra of a man and a woman. And during sexual intercourse, the natural mucus acts as a protection for the seed from the aggressive environment of the vagina.
The composition of the transparent lubricant also includes smegma. This is the name of a fat-like substance that is secreted by the glands of the foreskin. Its main function is to ensure the safe exit of the glans penis from the folds of the preputial sac during arousal. However, if this useful mucus is not removed in time, it mixes with the dead epithelium and becomes a habitat for various pathogens. Therefore, representatives of the stronger sex at any age should carefully perform hygiene procedures, change underwear every day, use condoms during casual sex.
What else should men do to keep the libidinal urethra an extremely healthy fluid? To do this, you need to eat properly, eliminating alcohol, fast food, fatty, salty, smoked foods from the diet. It is also necessary to exercise regularly to activate all metabolic processes and consult a doctor if the color, smell or consistency of the lubricant changes. Every guy should avoid kinky sex, but also make sure he doesn't have long periods of abstinence in his life.
When you worry
Any change in the characteristics of the mucus that is released during awakening should alert a person and become a reason to contact a specialist. Often, it is thanks to unusual secretions that dangerous diseases of the reproductive, reproductive and secretory system can be detected at an early stage. You should consult a doctor immediately if there is no liquid at all or if the ejaculate turns green with a strong musty smell. Another negative factor in the deviation from the norm is the appearance of blood impurities and curd-like sediments in the clear mucus.
Why does the discharge turn gray-green when excited? So, the body can respond to the development of the inflammatory process in the pelvic area. The following accompanying symptoms can confirm this diagnosis:
- Increase in body temperature.
- Abdominal pain.
- Swelling of the skin.
- Discharge of purulent fluid from the urethra without excitement.
Viscous transparent discharge sometimes indicates infection with infectious diseases: staphylococcus aureus, streptococcus, Escherichia coli. Moreover, they can be distinguished in men not only at the moment of excitement, but also in a calm state of the body. Associated symptoms are:
- Itching in the genitals.
- Hyperemia in the penis.
- Redness of the external genitalia.
- Swelling of the extremities.
Similar pathological processes in the body of a man during awakening and during the period of rest are observed when infected with venereal diseases. How much the discharge composition has deviated from the norm can be detected using a diagnostic examination of the pre-ejaculate.
It is necessary to urgently consult a doctor for men who, at the moment of awakening, release a lubricant with white spots of a curd-like nature. Thus, candidiasis is manifested - a fungal disease, the causative agent of which is the milk fungus Candida. This microorganism is normally part of the human microflora, but with a decrease in immunity, it begins to multiply intensively, leaving a white layer of cheese on the penis and in the fluid that is released during awakening.
Probability of conception
Many couples are interested in whether the process of conception is possible with interrupted intercourse, that is, is there enough sperm in the mucosa for successful fertilization? Experts do not exclude the possibility of pregnancy from a clear liquid that is released during awakening. After all, it is impossible to calculate exactly how many germ cells will come out with pre-ejaculate. So, the more active the spermatozoa in a man's semen, the greater will be their number in the libidinal urethra.
What factors increase the chance of conception? First of all - the days of ovulation of a woman. If coitus interruptus occurs at a time when the cervical canal is open, and the egg has matured and left the follicle, even a single spermatozoon, released along with the clear mucus, is able to carry out fertilization. It should be clarified that this process is not the norm and such cases are described very rarely.
Another factor that increases the chance of getting pregnant is repeated sexual intercourse. Thus, the sperm drops always remain in the passage of the male urethra and during the next intimacy they are released together with the mucus. To reduce this possibility, a man only needs to empty his bladder between intercourse. The acidic fluid of the urine will neutralize any remaining sperm and the next discharge, when awakened, will again be almost harmless.
Remember that any type of abortion is extremely harmful to the female body. Therefore, if pregnancy is not included in your plans, take contraceptives or use all kinds of protective methods (condom, IUD, vaginal cap). And if the composition of the mucus that is released during awakening is far from normal, that is, it has an unusual structure, smell, blood stains or curds, then there is a high risk of infecting a partner with infectious or fungal diseases.
Excretion during arousal is a natural process that helps keep sperm active. The color, volume, smell and consistency of a fluid can tell a lot about a man's health. It is a visual deviation from the norm that can be a reason to see a doctor and identify the disease at an early stage, while other symptoms have not yet fully manifested. Therefore, all representatives of the stronger sex should not only take care of the hygiene of the external genitalia, but also notice in time all the changes in the secreted fluid.
When asked why a condom should be worn during intercourse, experts answer that the composition of the mucus includes sperm and can cause an unplanned conception. To prevent this from happening, you should take care of the means of protection, especially during the beginning of the ovulation period.
