Men, like women, are very vulnerable to diseases of the genital area and therefore they should also carefully monitor their well-being, paying special attention to the discharge from the urethra during sexual arousal. Because it is in this state of the penis begins to appear a secret, the nature of which a man can assess the health of men. And which discharge during arousal in men is natural and which signals pathologies, you will now find out.
What is considered the norm?
To have an idea of which discharge from the penis indicates the development of various diseases, you must first understand which of them is normal. And they are:
- Libidal urethrosis. This is the name of a clear liquid without a specific odor, which appears during sexual arousal and serves as a lubricant. At the same time, the clear fluid from the penis is released in very small quantities and does not cause any discomfort to the man. The lubricating secretion contains some sperm, which are also motile and easily penetrate the partner's vagina, as a result of which she can become pregnant. For this reason, those who do not want to have children in the near future are advised to use condoms (only if the woman does not accept OK) from the beginning of intercourse, and not at the end of intercourse, as many do.
- Sperm. It has a mucous consistency and white color, does not differ in specific odor and begins to stand out from the urethra only when the maximum peak of arousal is reached. It contains a high percentage of motile sperm and secretions produced by the gonads. If this fluid enters a woman's vagina during ovulation (this happens in the middle of the menstrual cycle), the probability of conceiving a child is 80-90%, even if a little ejaculate is released at the end of sex. It is worth noting that some men associate this phenomenon with pathologies, but this is not the case. If other symptoms do not bother, then this phenomenon is most often associated with the physiological characteristics of the organism.
- Smegma. This is a secretion produced by the gonads located near the head of the penis. It may have a yellowish or whitish tinge and also give off an unpleasant odor. The accumulation of smegma in the area of the main penis is not a pathology, but it shows insufficient observance of the rules of personal hygiene.
All these secretions with strong sexual arousal are the absolute norm. However, if they join other symptoms (pain in the head of the penis or groin, itching, redness, specific odor, etc. ), this already indicates abnormalities that require an immediate visit to the doctor and examination.
Pathological discharge from the penis
As already mentioned, it is normal for men to have mucus when they are excited. But what if it contains impurities of blood or pus? Of course, do not sit down and see a doctor as soon as possible. After all, the presence of unnatural impurities in the secretions secreted by the penis, always speaks of the development of pathologies.
And arguing why men may have a specific discharge from the urethral canal, it is necessary to note the following pathologies, accompanied by a similar symptom:
- Inflammatory diseases of the genitourinary system, provoked by various pathogenic microorganisms.
- Oncological diseases.
- PPB.
- Complications of an inflammatory nature that occur after an injury during a stroke or surgery.
Most of all, the fear and fear for their health in men arise in those situations when they notice the release of blood from the urethral canal during ejaculation. And the reason why blood flows from the penis is most often cancer, which affects the prostate gland, testicles or sperm. But in this case there are other symptoms characteristic of these diseases:
- Pain when urinating.
- Staining of urine red.
- Rising temperature.
- Mucosal clots may appear from the urethra (observed in the later stages of the pathology).
Important! Cancer is a dangerous disease that can be fatal. Therefore, in no case should its treatment be delayed. Most often its development in men occurs against the background of a prostate adenoma, which does not respond to adequate treatment.
If a sticky transparent secretion begins to stand out through the urethra, a viscous consistency, emitting an unpleasant odor, this indicates the development of infectious diseases transmitted directly during sexual intercourse. Additional signs of their presence are itching, redness of the head of the penis and the appearance of a rash on it. Among the infectious diseases that affect the male urogenital system, the most common are:
- ureaplasmosis;
- mycoplasmosis;
- chlamydia;
- herpes;
- syphilis.
With the development of infectious processes, the secretion secreted by the penis contains a huge number of leukocytes, which makes them viscous. So in their composition can be noted impurities of pus, which already shows a complex course of these diseases. If there is no pus, this is not a reason to delay treatment, because such diseases can cause the development of phimosis. This is a condition characterized by adhesion of the foreskin to the penis of the head and can only be eliminated by surgery.
Other infectious diseases can also cause pathological discharge from the urethral canal in men, with the development of which it is also necessary to see a doctor immediately. Among them is the defeat of the paired genitalia (testicles) or urethra by fungi, staphylococci, streptococci and others. In addition, they can be affected by itching in the perineum, swelling of the scrotum or glans penis and hyperemia.
Diseases such as:
- balanoposthitis;
- non-gonorrheal urethritis;
- prostatitis;
- hemorrhoids;
- spermatorrhea.
In these pathologies, blood secretion can be released from the urethra of the penis, which is complemented by pain in the groin, head of the penis and scrotum. With their development, weakness, fever and difficulty urinating are often observed.
What to do?
If during sexual arousal a man notices a discharge from the urethra of an uncharacteristic exudate, you should immediately visit a doctor who will help you determine the exact cause of its occurrence. To this end, a number of diagnostic measures are usually prescribed, which include:
- Urethral cytosmear for bacterial culture.
- Spermogram.
- Examination by a proctologist.
- General analysis of urine and blood.
- Ultrasound of the pelvic organs, etc.
As soon as the doctor determines the cause of the pathological discharge, he prescribes treatment that can reduce the manifestations of the disease and prevent the development of complications against its background.
If a man does not visit a doctor and does not undergo a full course of treatment, this can lead to disease progression and the appearance of irreversible consequences that will affect not only the quality of sexual life, but also his health in general.
After all, some diseases of the genitourinary tract during ejaculation provoke the opening of bleeding, which can lead to sudden death. And to prevent this, when pathological discharge occurs, it is necessary to postpone sexual intercourse and be sure to visit a doctor. Only in this way you will have a chance to avoid the development of serious complications and maintain your male health for many years.
