Sooner or later, men ask questions about their health.Erection problems can occur at any age.Today, specialists are increasingly faced with complaints about the erectile state of young people under 25 years old.It is clear that the problem has become considerably “rejuvenated”.Erectile dysfunction occurs for various reasons: stress, overwork, diseases of the cardiovascular system, unhealthy lifestyle, hormonal imbalance, poor diet.A man can identify certain pathologies himself - by the nature of discharge during an erection.After all, timely seeking help from a doctor guarantees completely painless treatment.
The normal nature of the discharge during excitement
Discharge from the penis in men during arousal and before sexual intercourse is completely normal.The release of secretions during stimulation of an erection is medically called libidinal urethrorrhea.The quantity and quality of these secretions can be completely different, depending on the characteristics of a particular man's body.
Normally, when an erection occurs, clear fluid should come out of the urethra.This liquid has a medium thickness.The quantity and duration of this secretion depend on the degree of erection and arousal.In other words, the stronger the excitement and desire, the greater the amount of fluid observed before sexual intercourse.It is important to know that even such discharge in men contains a certain amount of sperm.This means that even if sexual intercourse is interrupted, pregnancy can occur.
So, the normal discharge during an erection is as follows:
- Urethorrhea;
- Smegma;
- Sperm.
As is already known, urethrorrhea is a secretion secreted when exposed to the degree of excitement.It is worth noting that libidinal urethrorrhea can be released in the morning after waking up.This is also considered the norm for men.Smegma is the secretion secreted by a gland located at the head of the penis.Men who carefully monitor their personal hygiene do not have this discharge.Smegma is made up of fat secreted by the sebaceous glands.The secretion accumulates under the skin of the glans penis.It washes off easily in the shower and a small amount is considered normal.
If you do not follow the rules of personal hygiene, smegma begins to be actively released during an erection.It is a fertile ground for the proliferation of many pathogenic microorganisms.And such pathogenic microflora can lead to various complications in the sphere of intimate life.Sperm are released from the urethra during ejaculation.After that, as a rule, the erection weakens and disappears completely.Semen contains a large number of sperm, a secretion of the gonads.The color of this secretion is generally white.If during sexual intercourse there is no release of sperm, this indicates serious problems with potency.Normally, ejaculation should occur no later than an hour after the start of sexual intercourse.
Pathological discharge
Sometimes excessive discharge from the urethra during an erection can indicate certain abnormalities.Some diseases are diagnosed precisely by the nature of the pathological discharge.After all, very often men do not have any other symptoms.This is why it is very important for young people to be attentive to all kinds of changes.
So, discharge that exceeds the normal range may indicate the presence of the following diseases:
- Sexually transmitted diseases;
- Inflammatory processes in the genitourinary system;
- Urethritis;
- Prostatitis;
- Balanitis;
- Oncological diseases;
- Complications after penile injuries.
The secretion secreted by men during an erection may be too weak, or on the contrary excessive.Also, in pathology, the color and consistency of this secretion play an important role.Generally, discharge that is too thick or too thin is considered unacceptable.The color may not be white, but yellow, gray, with a greenish tint.Blood or pus may be present.If the secretion is transparent, but thick and sticky, we can talk about the presence of diseases such as mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis, chlamydia.
During laboratory tests, in this case, too many leukocytes are detected.If the disease is in a severe advanced form, pus is observed in the discharge.In the presence of a disease such as chlamydia, discharge accumulates on the glans and sticks the foreskin together.
No less rarely, pathological discharge during an erection occurs against the background of other diseases:
- Candidiasis;
- Staphylococcus;
- Streptococcus;
- Escherichia coli.
At the same time, young people complain not only of pathological discharge during an erection, but also of itching, burning and swelling of the tissues of the penis.Abnormal secretion does not always indicate problems with the genitourinary system.Inflammation of the genitals, both external and internal, can occur due to allergies, stricture of the urethra, chemical poisoning and mechanical effects on the mucous membranes of the genitals.As soon as a man discovers a pathology, it is important to consult a doctor quickly.The specialist will prescribe the most correct treatment for you.This will help avoid possible complications.
