Excretion in men during arousal. Clear and white discharge during sex. Which doctor is treating

Discharge from the human body mean a lot. Usually, their presence indicates a healthy state or about any pathologies, the development of diseases or infectious processes. In some cases, the discharge itself should be absent, for example, with a runny nose, it is obvious that the person is sick. Likewise with discharge from the ears.

In the case of the reproductive system, everything is somewhat more complicated - from the genitals - their natural openings - fluids seep, which in some cases are the norm, but in others they will serve as one of the symptoms of the disease. And sometimes discharge from the penis is the only symptom of a developing serious illness.

It is impossible to accurately determine the cause and how normal the presence of the present discharge is by its appearance. Always to confirm or refute the diagnosis, a laboratory examination is required, for referral to which it is necessary to visit a urologist. The doctor determines the appropriate treatment only on the basis of the test results.

Particular attention should be paid to the presence of discharge during sexual arousal. when a man has an erection and fluid begins to flow from the urethral opening. It is important to pay attention to its consistency, smell, quantity, color. Consider in what cases it is worth fearing for your own health if discharge appears during sexual arousal.

Physiological discharge on excitement

Libidous urethrorrhea Is a secret secreted by the sex glands. When excited, it appears in all men. The amount of secretion is small, it can be formed during intercourse. In some cases, a large amount of the secret is allocated.

Norm or deviation?

How to determine if a normal amount of secretion is released during arousal? The physiology of all men may differ, and there are no norms for the volume of the secret. However, if a person noticed that for no reason the volume of the liquid increased, it changed its consistency, smell and color, this is a signal of the presence of infection, inflammation, problems with the genitals, and so on.

There may be exceptions to this situation. So, if a man has not had intercourse for a long time, the secret increases in volume. It may be slightly thicker, more cloudy, but there should be no yellow tint, blood streaks and other changes. The maximum is a little turbidity.

A normal secret should have the following characteristics:

• lack of unpleasant odor;
• transparent color;
• the consistency of medium density.

Factors that can influence the characteristics of the secret:

• diseases;
• dietary habits (consumed products);
• abstinence from sexual activity;
• stress and improper lifestyle, weakening of the immune system.

In some cases, the secretion of a secret upon excitement provokes an act of defecation. From the physiological point of view, this process is normal, although its formation should be rare.

It is important to remember that the secret secreted during excitement from the urethral canal of the penis contains spermatozoa... With their poor quality or with inflammation of the prostate gland, the sperm changes in color. In this case, when excited, the liquid may not be released as usual.

Smegma- another type of discharge, which is formed with arousal. If hygiene is not observed, the formation of a substance in the folds of the skin on the penis can occur. If this process occurs, the chance of developing inflammation and infections increases.

The semen must also have a certain consistency, smell and color. However, its features and characteristics may depend on individual characteristics. First, it is excreted from the penis during the body during intercourse or masturbation.

Discharge during inflammation

If a man does not have sexually transmitted diseases, we are talking about an inflammatory process, or rather, its possible presence in the body.

The causative agents can be as follows:

• streptococcus;
• candida;
• colibacillus;
• staphylococcus aureus.

Inflammatory process in the urethra - the channel that allows fluids to pass. In this case, the nature of the selection may be as follows:

• the presence of mucus;
• the presence of pus;
• stickiness;
• turbidity.

When the penis is in a state of arousal, a small amount of fluid is released from the urethra. This is a normal phenomenon that is inherent in almost all healthy men. With the development of diseases, the consistency and volume of the lubricant change. An unpleasant odor, pain or burning sensation occurs when urinating or erections. Such a clinical picture requires special attention from a person, since there is a threat to health.

  Discharge in men when excited

  Discharge during arousal in men is called pre-ejaculate. It protrudes from the opening of the urethra at the moment when the guy is aroused. The pre-seed is secreted by bulbourethral glands and Littre's glands, which are located throughout the canal, from the outer opening to the bladder neck.

  Discharge upon excitement in men performs the following functions:

  • provide free passage through the urethra;
  • destroy bacteria;
  • moisturize and suppress the acidic environment in the urethra.

  The pre-seed can also act as a lubricant during intercourse, but in most cases, the amount allocated will not be enough for this. Pre-ejaculate is one of the components of semen. It enters the semen during ejaculation, mixes with the semen, which allows you to protect the sperm from the acidic environment of the woman's vagina.

  Healthy discharge in men when excited

  

  Normal amount of mucus

  The volume of pre-ejaculate directly depends on the degree. Maximum concentration is achieved with strong sexual desire. The normal amount of liquid is 5 ml.

  Some members of the stronger sex are physiologically unable to produce lubricant. The absence of presemen during erection reduces the ability to conceive.

  Healthy precum has the following characteristics:

  • lack of smell;
  • transparency;
  • viscosity;
  • lack of lumps or inclusions;
  • does not cause unpleasant or painful sensations.

  The pre-seed performs cleansing functions, so its consistency can change. A man may observe the clouding of the lubricant with repeated, lack of hygiene, or before ejaculation. It will return to normal in 1-2 days. Otherwise, the development of the disease process should be suspected.

  

  Signs of deviation from the norm

  The greatest chance of conception in this case occurs in the middle of the cycle, when the woman ovulates and the cervix is ​​open. In other situations, the concentration of male germ cells in the pre-seed will be insufficient. They will quickly die in the vagina, outside the sperm nutrient medium.

  The likelihood of conception is much higher with repeated sexual intercourse, when the lubricant contains a fairly large amount of sperm.

  To prevent unwanted pregnancy, a man is advised to urinate to wash off any remaining semen.

Pre-ejaculatory or pre-seminal fluid by its name makes it clear what appears before ejaculation during orgasm. Unknowingly, men can get scared, considering the discharge premature, and women have a fear of becoming pregnant.

Knowledge of the nature of the formation and the composition of the pre-ejaculate will allow you to bring harmony and tranquility into the relationship.

Pre-seminal or Cooper's fluid is formed in a man at the exit from the urethra in a state of sexual arousal, has the form of a transparent viscous drop without color. Is allocated during intercourse or foreplay.

Cooper's (bulbourethral) glands are the main source of pre-seminal fluid. Littre's glands serve as an additional place of preseed formation.

Formation mechanism

The bulbourethral or cooper glands, located in the muscles of the perineum at the base of the penis, produce male natural lubrication. The Littre glands located inside the urethra from the bladder to the external opening can also perform the function of forming lubricant on the penis. They secrete a slimy, alkaline fluid, increasing the volume of pre-ejaculate produced by Cooper's glands.

Upon reaching sexual arousal, the pelvic muscles contract, blocking the urinary canal and preventing urination during intercourse. At this point, the glands of Cooper and Littre begin to secrete male lubricant.

Depending on the physiological characteristics of each man, the amount of pre-sperm is different, normally it ranges from two drops to 5 ml. Under certain circumstances, the amount of discharge may be greater.

Compound

Pre-ejaculatory fluid is released when a man's genitals are in strong arousal. The pre-seed is alkaline (pH around 8) and contains a number of chemicals.

The structure of the pre-ejaculate is a colloidal, gel-like mass consisting of:

• water:
• a number of enzymes and glycopolysaccharides:
• ions of potassium, calcium, sodium and a little magnesium.

Sperm in the pre-seminal fluid can be accidentally when they get into it after previous intercourse or masturbation.

Functions

A man's urethra, like a woman's vagina, has an acidic environment that kills sperm. Pre-seed substance neutralizes acidity and creates a favorable environment for the seed.

Pre-ejaculatory fluid has other beneficial functions:

• is a lubricant for painless insertion of the penis into the vagina, facilitating the implementation of frictions during the act;
• facilitates the movement of ejaculate along the canal of the penis, moisturizing it;
• clears the urethra from the remnants of previous ejaculation and urine;
• protects seminal fluid from damage.

Pre-sperm and pregnancy

Fertilization of the egg from the pre-ejaculatory fluid is not possible. There are no sperm in the pre-ejaculation before ejaculation, but the likelihood of getting them into the lubricant remains after a previous orgasm, especially a recent one.

Pregnancy can occur if:

• sperm getting into Cooper's fluid;
• the seed is in a high degree of activity;
• sexual intercourse occurs at the most favorable time for conception in a woman.

Sperm cells live for a few seconds, being in an unfavorable environment, but the strongest manage to survive in the canal of the male genital organ or on the surface of the head until the next unprotected intercourse.

Does it contain sperm

There are no sperm in the pre-seminal fluid. They do not fall into it at the moment of formation. Seed and pre-seed are produced by various unrelated organs. The lubricant is released from the man before ejaculation.

The likelihood of a viable semen entering the precum from the outside remains after recent unprotected intercourse or masturbation.

The practice of interrupted intercourse

The superstition about the ability of male natural lubricant to fertilize an egg may have arisen from the emergence of pregnancy using interrupted intercourse as a method of contraception. In order to avoid conception with this method, the man removes the penis from the vagina before ejaculation. But if, in a state of strong overexcitation, he did not manage to pull out his organ before the start of ejaculation, then fertilization of the egg with even a small amount of the first sperm ejection is quite possible.

Unprotected sex during the practice of interrupted intercourse leaves the opportunity for a woman to become pregnant when the man ejaculates again, when the semen from the previous ejaculation can enter the egg with the released lubricant.

If precum enters the vagina

Based on the fact that one of the purposes of pre-seminal fluid is to facilitate the introduction of the male genital organ into the female and lubricate during frictions, it is natural that it enters the vagina.

If partners are planning to conceive, then such a hit of lubricant will only help. Otherwise, it is necessary to take precautions for unprotected intercourse or switch to the use of contraceptives.

Pre-semen analyzes

Due to cases of pregnancy when using interruption of the act as a method of contraception, a misconception arose about the content of ejaculate in the natural lubricant of a man. The assumption has found a place in a number of articles in the medical literature, some teachers in universities present incorrect information to students.

To determine the truth in Israel, an experiment was carried out with analyzes of the pre-seed of the volunteers of the project. Pre-ejaculate was taken for analysis from absolutely healthy men and having problems with the genitourinary system of different ages. No seed was found in any of the samples.

The test liquid contains water, enzymes, minerals, in particular sodium, in a gel form. It is thanks to sodium that the pre-seed has an alkaline reaction.

To carry out analyzes and research of Cooper fluid, it is necessary to contact a specialist if abnormalities and pathologies are detected.

Possible pathologies

Excretion of pre-ejaculate in men in a state of sexual arousal is the norm. Changes in this area of ​​the body's vital activity should cause concern.

A sign of pathology can be the release of a colorless fluid without an erection, which is caused by streptococci, staphylococci or E. coli.

If cheesy blotches appear in the pre-seed, this may mean an inflammatory disease, candidiasis. You need to consult a doctor.

There are cases when a specialist is asked about the allocation of a large amount of pre-semen at the slightest excitement. This gives the man discomfort, the discharge can become noticeable to others. Such a failure is treatable, and after examination, the andrologist prescribes therapy.

Video

The video presents a doctor's story about possible discharge from a man's urethra.

Discharge in men when excited is a normal physiological phenomenon. It is very easy to determine that in a particular case they are harmless and were formed solely due to the strong arousal of a man. They will have certain characteristics in terms of smell and consistency. The liquid should be colorless, not have pronounced unpleasant odors, and also be sufficiently thick and sticky.

The amount of discharge may vary. It all depends on the individual characteristics of the human body. Some representatives of the stronger sex may have a lot of mucus, while others do not notice such a phenomenon at all.

The question of the normality of manifestations

For a strong half of humanity, the release of fluid from the genital organ is considered not as common as in women. Nevertheless, during a period of strong arousal, this happens, and sometimes in a rather tangible amount. Some men note discharge weighing up to 5 g. In no case can it be considered a pathology, but only in that situation if the liquid is colorless and does not have an unpleasant odor.

The release of a clear liquid can be noted only with significant arousal. This can be facilitated by thoughts of intercourse, masturbation, or touching a woman. In general, such a phenomenon as transparent discharge from the penis, a man can observe during an erection.

In some men, pre-seminal fluid comes out with every arousal, while others note this only in rare cases. You should not be afraid of secretions if they do not contain impurities of pus or blood. In fact, this mucus is very important for the implementation of certain processes in a man's life.

Importance for the conception process

Experts note that the absence of pre-seminal fluid during an erection is a bad indicator if a couple is going to have offspring. The thing is that it plays a supporting role when sperm need to get to the egg.

Once the male semen enters the vagina, it encounters a host of obstacles. They are primarily associated with an acidic environment. Most of the sperm die immediately, as they cannot stand the acidity. The pre-seminal fluid, which forms in a man during intense arousal, can reduce acid levels. In a more balanced vaginal environment, sperm are more likely to reach their main goal, which is the female ovum.

Thus, it is safe to say that erection discharge is an important mechanism of the male reproductive system. Nevertheless, the representatives of the stronger sex need to closely monitor how the liquid looks. If it turns yellow, green, or blood impurities appear in it, this indicates serious problems and an urgent need to see a doctor.

Cause for concern

During a period of intense arousal, men do not always pay attention to what kind of fluid is released from the genitals. But in some cases it will be very useful. This is especially true for those who periodically feel discomfort in the genital area and feel pain during urination.

A dangerous sign is any discharge that is opaque and overly thick. The liquid can be gray, greenish, yellow, or just look like curd. This will be just one of the unpleasant symptoms, since in addition, discomfort during intercourse and pain when emptying the bladder will certainly appear. All this indicates pathological changes in the pelvic area.

There can be many reasons that can lead to the appearance of suspicious discharge. This should include infectious ailments, and fungal infections, and even unhealthy diet. The most dangerous are: chlamydia, trichomoniasis, gonorrhea, candidiasis and mycoplasmosis. All of them can cause atypical discharge from the male genital organs, which will intensify during arousal.

Injuries that have domestic or sexual reasons can lead to uncharacteristic discharge. Poor hygiene also leads to this result. A man should remember that improper care of the genitals can lead to serious pathologies.

The reasons that cause specific discharge from the male penis can be either life-threatening (for example, malignant tumors), or simply unhealthy diet. Spicy and pickled dishes can cause a man to develop suspicious discharge. If this has been noted, you need to stop using mustard, vinegar, sauerkraut, drinks with dyes and preservatives.

If a man begins to notice suspicious symptoms in the form of pain and discomfort in the genitals, which is accompanied by unusual discharge, it is necessary to consult a doctor. After carrying out all the required diagnostic procedures, the specialist will prescribe the correct treatment, which should bring the man's health back to normal. It must be remembered that all the time during which normal transparent liquid does not come out of the penis, you can forget about conceiving a child.

In order not to face such troubles and not to waste time on long and not the most pleasant treatment, you need to revise your lifestyle and remove from it everything that can negatively affect your health.

Representatives of the stronger sex need to monitor the condition of their genitals no less than women. If any suspicious signs appear, you should immediately consult a doctor. This will allow you to quickly cure the pathology, if any, and also do without complications.

To make visits to the doctor a rarity, it is necessary to refrain from casual sexual intercourse. If this does happen, it is imperative to use barrier contraception. Don't forget about personal hygiene and proper nutrition. Experts recommend that those couples who are preparing for conception, for a while, give up spicy and pickled dishes, food with preservatives and dyes, as well as carbonated drinks. This will keep the reproductive system in good condition, and the man will thus increase the amount of fluid useful for conception.

Antipyretics for children are prescribed by a pediatrician. But there are emergency situations for fever in which the child needs to be given medicine immediately. Then the parents take responsibility and use antipyretic drugs. What is allowed to be given to infants? How can you bring down the temperature in older children? What are the safest medicines?

1 What is normal male discharge?

Normal physiological discharge in men from the penis is observed in such situations:

1. With sexual arousal (erection). Transparent mucus comes out of the urethra, which is secreted by the Cooper or bulbourethral gland. The secretion of the glands is designed to lubricate the urethra before sperm exit and to accelerate the movement of sperm.
2. With ejaculation during intercourse or masturbation. Pollution, the involuntary discharge of sperm at night, can also be included in the same series. Such transparent discharge begins during puberty in young men, when they see dreams of a sexual nature. In adult men, wet dreams occur with prolonged abstinence from sexual intercourse.
3. When straining during a bowel movement. Increased intra-abdominal pressure can lead to the discharge of viscous mucus with grayish streaks from the urethra. This is the so-called defecation prostatorrhea. A similar phenomenon occurs at the end of urination, it is called vocal prostatorrhea. Rarely, after a coughing attack, insignificant secretions of seminal vesicles and prostate secretions may remain on the linen.

All the types of discharge described are insignificant in volume and should not be of a daily nature. Normally, the opening of the urethra is always dry and clean.

2 When to start worrying?

Every healthy adult man knows what his penis discharge looks like. If he notices a change in odor, color, consistency or amount of fluid, you need to go to the urologist. Checking the condition of the body does not hurt, even if you are completely healthy. Constant thoughts about possible problems and diseases of the genital area not only distract from work, but also interfere with concentration during sex. Infectious diseases of the genitourinary system are far from always accompanied by additional symptoms: cramps and burning sensation during urination, pain in the groin, weakness and discomfort. Often, at the onset of the disease, only discharge appears.

How to check?

1. First, pay attention to whether you have light spots on your underwear.
2. Most often, the discharge accumulates at night, when the man is asleep and does not go to the toilet. If the urethra is crusty or sticky, then there is a discharge.
3. To make sure, you can press on the urethra, then the accumulated secret will come closer to the opening.
4. If you notice cloudy droplets in the urethra and experience pain when urinating, then you need to go to the doctor and get tested.
5. Sometimes discharge can be observed only after drinking alcohol, spicy and very salty food. These factors reduce immunity, so sluggish inflammation intensifies and manifests itself as secretions.
6. It is not easy to find scanty discharge, because not all men put pressure on the urethra in the morning and see if something comes out or not. Doubts appear after casual sexual relations or when itching, pain, and cramps appear when urinating. To be sure, try pouring the first portion of your morning urine into a clear glass. See if there are any floating threads or flakes that have been sprayed away.

3 Common causes of the problem

The most common cause of discharge is inflammation of the urethra (urethritis). The inflamed mucous membrane secretes more white blood cells and mucus in order to neutralize the action of microbes as possible and quickly remove them from the body.

1. Specific infectious diseases - sexually transmitted diseases (trichomoniasis, gonorrhea, mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis, chlamydia).
2. Nonspecific, when the pathological growth of conditionally pathogenic microorganisms begins, which in normal times peacefully coexist with normal flora (candidiasis, gardnerellosis, and others).

The inflammation can begin when the urethra is damaged during sample collection or when corrosive to chemicals and salt crystals from urine. Irritation of the urethra with food (mustard, sauerkraut, vinegar and beer) can also provoke discharge.

Cancer of the penis or urethra can be a more serious cause of fluid droplets from the urethra. Due to erosions, ulcers and areas of necrosis of the tissues of the urethra, inflammation and abnormal production of mucus begins, sometimes with an admixture of blood.

4 What color is the discharge?

To make a preliminary diagnosis, the doctor may ask about the color, transparency, amount and consistency of the discharge. These characteristics express the cause, intensity and stage of the inflammatory process.

The secretions are composed of fluid, mucus, and various cells. The abundance of dead epithelial cells gives the secretions a cloudy gray tint and a thick consistency. The greenish and yellow discharge takes on color due to the large number of dead white blood cells designed to fight the infection. Thick or dense white discharge occurs with thrush. With the same disease, as the condition worsens and the inflammatory process intensifies, the color and consistency of the discharge may change.

With STDs, men most often have unusual discharge. For example, for the chronic form of chlamydial, mycoplasma or ureaplasma infection, abundant viscous transparent discharge is characteristic. Moreover, the number of leukocytes does not exceed the norm. In the acute course of these diseases or during an exacerbation, translucent mucopurulent discharge of yellowish or white color is observed, accumulating on the head of the penis.

With gonorrhea, thick and sticky, purulent yellow discharge has an unpleasant putrid odor. In some cases, the liquid takes on a greenish tint. Analyzes reveal a large number of leukocytes and epithelial cells. Gonorrheal urethritis is also accompanied by itching, pain and burning sensation, aggravated by urination.

White discharge in men occurs with candidiasis. They occur against the background of a decrease in immunity in everyday life, as well as after undergoing a serious illness, antibiotic therapy or cancer treatment. With gardnerellosis, a small amount of white liquid is released from the urethra or light yellow discharge occurs.

Please note that it will not be possible to identify the disease only by the color, quantity, consistency and smell of the discharge. Frequent use of antibiotics and other drugs leads to a modification of bacteria, so the diseases they cause do not always have the described features and manifestations. The doctor can use the patient's complaints for preliminary diagnostics, but the development of a treatment regimen should be based on the test results.

5 Diagnosis and treatment

At the first symptoms, you need to go to a urologist or andrologist. He will perform an external examination of the genitals and take a swab of the discharge for microscopic analysis. In the laboratory, at high magnification under a microscope, epithelial cells, mucus, yeasts, gonococci, gardnerella, Trichomonas and other microorganisms can be detected. To identify the coccal flora (streptococci, staphylococci and others), they resort to sowing secretions on an artificial nutrient medium, and after a few days they determine which bacteria have grown.

In smears, bacteria may be absent, but an increased number of leukocytes indicates the presence of an inflammatory process. In this case, it is necessary to do a blood test to identify sexually transmitted infections (herpes, chlamydia, mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis, syphilis, gonorrhea and others).

Pretreatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics is started only in patients with acute manifestations (fever, abdominal pain, and symptoms of intoxication). After receiving the test results, the patient is prescribed individual therapy aimed at getting rid of the microbes he has.

Quite often, immediately after the tests of blood, urine and smears, an instrumental examination of the patient is carried out - an ultrasound examination of the kidneys, bladder and genitals. In order to better examine the condition of the prostate gland, men undergo TRUS - a transrectal ultrasound examination of the prostate gland using a transducer inserted into the rectum.

Inflammation can not only cover the urethra and prostate, but also spread to the bladder and kidneys. In this case, they look at the ultrasound to see if there are stones in the kidneys in order to exclude inflammation caused by the passage of stones and sand through the urethra. Complex therapy may include not only systemic drugs, topical ointments, but also physiotherapy.

When a man notices a yellow, green, or white discharge, he should go to the doctor right away. Oppression and postponement of tests and treatment worsens the situation, as a result, the infection from the urethra spreads to the prostate, bladder and kidneys. The more organs are involved in the pathology, the more difficult it is to recover.

And a little about secrets.

Have you ever suffered from problems with PROSTATIT? Judging by the fact that you are reading this article, the victory was not on your side. And of course you know not by hearsay what it is:

• Increased irritability
• Impaired urination
• Erection problems

Now answer the question: does this suit you? Can problems be tolerated? And how much money have you already "poured" on ineffective treatment? That's right - it's time to end it! Do you agree? That is why we decided to publish an exclusive interview with the Chief UROLOGIST of the country, in which he revealed the secret of the fight against Prostatitis. Read the article ...

Therefore, doctors believe that the external opening of the urethra in healthy men should always remain dry and clean. As soon as the discharge changes its amount, consistency, color or odor, it is necessary to consult a doctor for a diagnosis.

Of course, if their urethra secretes fluid or mucus throughout the day and in large quantities, then the man will very quickly notice.

Discharge in men

In urology and venereology, discharge is one of the most obvious, important and first symptoms of the disease. The turbidity of the discharge depends on how many cells it contains.

Despite the fact that doctors can immediately assume the cause of the appearance of the discharge, they can never make a diagnosis based on an external examination. It is necessary to analyze the secretions, examine them under a microscope, and perform inoculation on a nutrient medium. The color, smell, quantity and consistency can be the same for different diseases.

If doctors determine that the cause of the discharge is a sexually transmitted disease, then the treatment should concern both partners (if the man has a regular sexual partner). Also, secretions can be considered the process of sperm eruption (ejaculation), which occurs spontaneously without the influence of accompanying factors (emissions).

Discharge in men from the penis

Such a discharge consists of a mixture of secretions from the prostate glands and seminal vesicles. Due to the influence of pathological factors of various etiologies, damage to the urethra appears, accompanied by discharge.

Normal discharge from the urethra in men

They are a translucent milky-white liquid. The appearance of such discharge is one of the fundamental symptoms for the setting of non-gonococcal urethritis. And here is described in detail about ureaplasmosis in men.

The composition of purulent discharge includes urethral mucus, cells of the damaged epithelium of the urogenital canal. The appearance of drops of such secretions is one of the main symptoms for the diagnosis of urethritis of gonococcal etiology.

The appearance of white discharge of a curdled consistency from the penis is most often characteristic of male candidiasis (thrush). Infection of a healthy man with candidiasis through sexual contact is almost impossible. Read the detailed article on thrush in men.

White discharge of a foamy consistency appears with trichomoniasis, which ranks first in the prevalence of STDs (sexually transmitted diseases). Another reason for white discharge from the urethra may be the chronic form of the course of prostatitis.

Discharge from the urethra of a different nature should be the reason for the patient to see a doctor. They can also become symptoms for a preliminary diagnosis of the disease. I know that this is nothing terrible, but still it is not convenient in front of the girls, they climb into their pants, and there all the panties are wet and they are a little scared, I would like to get rid of the discharge!

Discharge in men is the appearance of mucus or fluid of various colors from the external opening of the urethra. Almost always, when a discharge appears, it is better to see a doctor for diagnosis.

Is it possible to judge the cause of the disease by the nature of the discharge

You need to be especially wary in cases where the discharge has a color that differs from transparent.

What do white discharge in men say?

Discharge may be without any discomfort in the urethra, but may also be accompanied by cramps during urination and discomfort.

However, such an obvious nature of the discharge is not so common. Much more common is the situation when the discharge in men appears only in the morning or after a long break in urination.

If the discharge is scanty, it is difficult to notice it. First of all, because rarely any of the men have the habit of pressing down on the urethra in the morning and maturing to see if discharge has appeared there. Filaments and flakes in the first portion of urine appear when there is discharge in the urethra, which is washed off with a stream.

White discharge in men is a common occurrence. Discharge from the urethra in men is not always a sign of any inflammatory processes.

Discharge from the genitals can bother not only girls, but also men. Males have normal discharge that is odorless. Their source is the urethra. In women, the discharge is called leucorrhoea. If you have noted unhealthy discharge in yourself, urgently go to an in-person appointment with a urologist.

Normal or pathological?

The urethra is a man's urethra. From there, discharge appears from time to time. There is such a thing as urethrorrhea. It can be physiological or libidinal. A transparent discharge appears from the outlet of the urethra. This happens in the morning, immediately upon waking, or when the man is sexually aroused.

Urethrorhea can be more or less pronounced. The lubricant that is released when aroused contains sperm. Therefore, if you do not want to have children yet, you should protect yourself even with foreplay with genitals. The discharge from men helps the sperm pass through the urethra and into and bypass the partner's vagina. After all, the environment there is sour, and this is harmful to the life of sperm.

Defective prostatorrhea may be the second cause of discharge in guys and men. When a person pushes, he has a discharge on the head of the penis that is odorless and colorless. They can sometimes contain white-gray inclusions. Their consistency is viscous. This is a discharge from the prostate and seminal vesicles. Appearance is possible when the emptying of the bladder is completed. Then it is called voiding prostatorrhea. In extremely rare cases, a man notes such a discharge after he coughed. It is not a disease, but a disorder that can be cured.

The next type of discharge from a man's genitals is smegma. It includes the secretion of the sebaceous glands of the head of the penis and the foreskin. If a man washes, changes his underwear and does not wear someone else's underwear, then these secretions will be washed off. And attention will not be focused on them. If everything is not so good with hygiene, there may be an accumulation of quite a large amount of smegma. Pathological flora will multiply and develop there, because the genitals and underwear will smell unpleasant.

Sperm

Sperm - a discharge in which there are many deaths (sperm). Sperm is released during ejaculation, that is, at the time of peak pleasure during intercourse of a different nature. Also, in a dream, men and guys sometimes have wet dreams, then sperm is also released from the penis.

Emissions occur mainly during puberty. This is 2-5 cases per month. But with changes in the balance of hormones, there may be wet dreams even several times a week. If sperm flows out of the penis not at the time of orgasm, this is called "spermatorrhea". This is a disease caused by a violation of muscle tone in the vas deferens. Basically, this happens with diseases of the brain or chronic inflammation in the ducts.

Pathological discharge

The above describes the physiological secretions that are normal in guys and men. Here we look at discharge that is associated with health problems. Basically, pathological discharge from the urethra bothers men with urethritis. This is an inflammatory process that develops in the urethra. Infection or non-infectious factors can provoke urethritis.

The infection can be both specific and non-specific. Specific is mainly trichomoniasis or gonorrhea. A nonspecific urethritis can be triggered by such pathogens:

Non-infectious causes of urethritis and associated discharge from the genital tract:

• trauma, narrowing of the urethra
• irritation by chemical factors
• mechanical damage to the mucous membrane
• the influence of allergens

Discharge from the genital tract in males can be different in color, as well as in transparency. It depends on how active the inflammation is, at what stage it is, what kind of flora is caused. The composition of the discharge from the penis includes :

• slime
• liquid
• cells of various origins

If there is a lot of the last named component, then the discharge becomes cloudy, which the man himself can visually observe. If epithelial cells appear in the secretions in large numbers, then the secretions thicken and acquire a gray tint.

If you find yourself yellow-green, greenish, or yellowish discharge... most likely, they have a lot of leukocytes. This means that the discharge contains purulent masses, which are the result of the inflammatory process. With the same disease, the discharge can be of different density, quantity and nature. For example, at the beginning of the disease, they can be thicker, and then gradually become more and more liquid. This is such an individual process that during the examination, the doctor will not be able to determine your illness, and it will be necessary to pass a number of tests.

Discharge in white men can have different reasons. The first thing that doctors suggest is the multiplication of the Candida fungus. The disease is called accordingly - candidiasis. You've probably heard that women have thrush. And in men, it also happens, but mainly proceeds in a latent form. But in rare cases, it is white discharge from the genitals that can take place.

• plaque of a white tint on the head of the penis
• the glans of the penis has an unpleasant odor that resembles yeast or sour bread
• there are unpleasant sensations on the penis and in the perineum: burning, itching, sometimes pain
• more discharge when emptying the bladder
• reddish spots on the tip of the penis and inside the foreskin
• white discharge at times other than urination
• pain during sex (on the head and on the foreskin)
• the sexual partner (wife, girlfriend) complains of discomfort up to pain during coitus
• the partner develops white discharge of a curdled consistency

The second possible cause of white discharge in men is ureaplasmosis, chlamydia, mycoplasmosis... It can also be an inflammation of the prostate gland, the symptoms of which are as follows:

• frequent urge to urinate
• discomfort during bowel movements
• burning sensation in the perineum and in the urethra
• intermittent and difficult emptying of the bladder
• sexual dysfunctions

If prostatitis is left untreated. then the erection will disappear, and it will also be impossible to conceive a child in the future (diagnosis: male infertility). Therefore, if one or more of the above symptoms appear, immediately seek an in-person consultation with a doctor.

There may be transparent discharge from the male member... The main reason: urethritis, caused by ureaplasma or chlamydia, proceeding in a chronic form. When the inflammation process intensifies, more leukocytes (which form the basis of pus, which have a yellow or green tint) are secreted and killed.

Gonorrhea and trichomoniasis in some cases cause abundant discharge, transparent. There is a lot of mucus in them. They stand out both in the morning, in the afternoon or in the evening. Also, a large amount of transparent discharge can be at the beginning of gonorrhea or trichomoniasis. If a man has ureaplasmosis or chlamydia infection... then unpleasant sensations may not be at all, and the discharge begins only if you do not go to the toilet for a long time.

The yellow discharge is purulent. They contain the epithelium of the urethra, which is desquamated. There is also an increased number of leukocytes and urethral mucus, which gives the secretions a specific shade. You should immediately be alerted if a greenish or yellow discharge appears. Most likely, you have a sexually transmitted disease (one of the above or others, there can be many variations, a co-infection is also possible, that is, caused by several pathogens at once).

With gonorrhea (one of the sexually transmitted diseases), the discharge has a thick consistency. They smell unpleasant, resembling rot. They can be at any time of the day. Also a characteristic concomitant symptom is pain when going to the toilet for a little. Discharge and itching in most cases indicate gonorrhea, but you need to be tested to get an accurate diagnosis.

Trichomoniasis can cause yellow discharge in men. But in most cases, the disease has a latent course, that is, there will be no symptoms. If there are symptoms, then there will be, including the following:

• discomfort in the perineum
• a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen
• frequent and overwhelming urge to urinate
• burning and stinging when urinating

Discharge with a smell

The first possible reason (and the most harmless) is a violation of hygiene. As mentioned above, smegma is a normal (non-disease) male discharge. If you do not wash regularly, at least once a day, then smegma accumulates, bacteria multiply in it, provoking not too pleasant smells. These smells may differ from man to man.

If you follow the rules of hygiene, and an unpleasant odor is still present, the doctor may suspect a metabolic disorder. In such cases, the most common cause is diabetes mellitus. Smegma will stand out in a large enough amount, because the laundry will be wet.

Infections are also the cause of smelly discharge in men. Basically, the pathological process occurs in the urethra. The doctor may suspect urethritis caused by a gonorrheal infection. The nature of the discharge is described above. If the discharge from the penis in men smells sour, most likely, urogenital candidiasis develops.

If the discharge from the genitals smells like fish, the man most likely has gardnerellosis. The same pathogen in women causes a disease called bacterial vaginosis. But these are very rare cases, in women, the disease is much more common. Gardnerella is a conditionally pathogenic flora. It multiplies when the body is exposed to certain factors. Factors for the development of gardnerellosis:

• promiscuous sex life
• tight synthetic underwear (made from unnatural materials)
• long courses of antibacterial drugs or immunosuppressants
• spermicide condoms
• intestinal dysbiosis
• inflammation of the genitourinary organs
• decreased immunity

Discharge with a smell in men can be caused by balanoposthitis or balanitis. These are inflammatory pathologies. There will also be flushing, itching and pain of the penis, and ulcers and wrinkling can be seen on the glans.

Discharge with blood in men

The main reason is infections. The discharge can be completely bloody or include streaks of blood. If the infection multiplies in the urethra, then you will notice such a symptom in yourself, but not necessarily. Urethritis is mainly caused in such cases by candidiasis, Trichomonas, or gonorrheal infection. The more inflammation is, the more blood is released.

Blood can be in chronic inflammation of the urethra. The essence of the process is that the mucous layer of the urethra becomes loose. If an irritant acts, then the membrane is damaged, blood begins to be released. Even urination can be an irritant.

Probable reason number two is medical manipulations carried out inaccurately. The urethra is injured, and therefore blood is released. Procedures in which damage to the urethra is possible:

• catheter placement
• catheter removal
• bougie
• taking a smear
• cystoscopy

Allocation with blood is simultaneous. It should be noted that while the blood is scarlet, without clots, it quickly stops.

Passage of calculi, sand is the next cause of bloody discharge from the penis. They are secreted from the kidneys or bladder and pass through the urethra. Microliths are solid, they injure the mucous membrane and vascular walls, which becomes the immediate cause of bleeding. Pain also occurs.

Glomerulonephritis also provokes in some cases of discharge with blood inclusions. Blood in the urine that a man sees when he goes to the toilet is called gross hematuria. Then symptoms such as increased blood pressure, swelling develop in parallel.

There can also be an even more serious cause of bleeding in guys and men - cancer. Malignant tumors can be of the following organs:

• testes
• penis
• prostate gland, etc.

The blood will then be brown or dark, and blood clots will be present in the secretions.

Isolation of blood with semen

This discharge is called hematospermia. It can be true or false. If the hematospermia is false, then the blood mixes with the sperm during its passage through the urethra. If this pathology is true, then the blood mixes with sperm even before passing through the urethra.

Hematospermia is manifested by the following symptoms (clinical picture):

• disorders of urination
• pain with ejaculation
• discomfort and pain in the lower back
• pain and / or swelling in the genitals
• high body temperature

Reasons for the discharge of blood with semen:

• prolonged sexual abstinence
• excessively active sex life (during coitus, the walls of blood vessels are torn)
• varicose veins of the pelvic organs
• stones in the testes and vas deferens
• malignant and benign formations in the genitourinary organs
• biopsy
• genital surgery

If you have noticed a discharge from the genitals that does not go away in a day or two, immediately go for an in-person consultation with an experienced doctor. If the discharge appeared after unprotected intercourse, you do not need to sound the alarm, but you need to go to the doctor and get tested as soon as possible. Health to you and your significant other!

Transparent discharge from the penis, which is observed during an erection, as a result of the work of the urethral glands, is considered normal in men. If there is itching and white discharge in men of a foamy or purulent nature, then this indicates some pathological process in the man's body. The color, smell and consistency of the discharge - carries some information about the latent ailment.

Normal discharge is called leucorrhoea. They come from the urinary canal. It is a natural moisturizing of the urethral surface. The color of normal discharge from the male genital canals should remain transparent. And the consistency of the mucous membrane should remain transparent.

Some discharge occurs under certain conditions. For example, with strong arousal, during an erection or at the time of spontaneous ejaculation. If the discharge from the urethra begins to change color or smell, then this indicates that the man's genitourinary system requires treatment.

There are many signs that a disease is occurring. They are classified into specific groups based on smell, color, and other characteristics.

White discharge with a purulent-mucous consistency

White mucopurulent discharge, which is a mixture containing a certain number of leukocytes, mucus and serous exudate, are the first symptoms inherent in non-gonococcal urethritis. Such manifestations can occur during the progression of ureaplasmosis, chlamydia and other diseases, including mycoplasmosis. More often, during such discharge, other manifestations are not observed, such as cramps, pain or itching.

White color with a foamy consistency

It so happens that a white mixture is released from the penis, which is complemented by a blood impurity. Sometimes there is an identification of streaks in the semen, with a further complication in the form of inflammation and pain during urination.

These symptoms are the first signs of trichomoniasis. Additional symptoms of infection, in addition to white discharge, are the manifestation of:

• aching pain in the pelvic region;
• discomfort in the groin area;
• feeling of heaviness;
• pain;
• burning sensation.

White discharge and thrush

White discharge may be associated with signs of thrush in the stronger sex. Other symptoms include:

• discomfort while urinating;
• itching, burning, or redness;
• white bloom or small rash that appears on the surface of the head;
• swelling and dry skin of the glans penis.

Sometimes white discharge turns into a cheesy consistency, which has an unpleasant odor. It is worth noting that during such symptoms a certain soreness occurs during intercourse.

During thrush in men, the genital organs, skin folds located near the anus are affected. With a more advanced form of thrush, the skin between the fingers or under the armpits is affected.

The disease in question can bring a lot of discomfort in male sex life. In addition, it is worth remembering that the chronic form of candidiasis provokes the appearance of inflammation of various organs. If the first symptoms appear, you should immediately consult a doctor.

Determining the causes of discharge from the penis

The causes of white discharge are different. Only a specialist should be engaged in their search, since the symptoms are very similar in completely different diseases.

During the examination of patients who came with complaints, careful research should be carried out for additional rashes. Specialists will need to examine the lymph nodes, they may be enlarged or show some soreness. It is important to pay attention to the presence of traces of discharge on your underwear in the morning.

The discharge that comes from the penis is assessed by experts after a light massage. It is performed after a three-hour abstinence from urination.

Research that men should take:

• urine test (evening and morning);
• Ultrasound of the bladder tissue;
• study of urethral discharge;
• taking swabs from the urethra;
• studies of the condition of the prostate;

• conducting urographic research;
• testing for blood sugar levels;
• blood test (general);
• computed tomography.

It should be noted that in case of urological inflammation, the main analysis for identifying pathology is the conduct of urethral smears. They make it possible to obtain more accurate facts pertaining to specific diseases.

Preparatory steps before taking a smear

In order for the smear result to be more accurate and help the specialist to make the correct diagnosis, it is recommended to carry out the correct preparatory work. For three days, before diagnostic work, it is worth excluding the use of a local antibiotic. And it is also worth abandoning the use of antifungal and antiseptic drugs.

Before research, you should refrain from urinating for three hours. If antibiotic therapy was carried out, then smears (for accurate results) should be done after three weeks.

Treatment features

It is not recommended to try to treat the disease with your own strength, based on the advice of friends, relatives or acquaintances. This often happens when advice is asked from people who have encountered problems and have been treated. But, it is not a fact that all their actions were correct, and there were no complications. There is no need to repeat mistakes, as this threatens health.

Which doctor is treating?

With such problems, which are discussed above, you need to seek help from a urologist. In the list of studies that are mandatory, there are tests for the study of other latent diseases, in addition to urological. The result of the treatment depends on the quality of the diagnostics.

If there is a suspicion of the presence of a urological disease, then the use of antibiotic and antifungal drugs will be required. Doctors prescribe drugs that can increase the patient's immunity. Modern preparations are used in the form of vitamin and mineral complexes, herbal tinctures, prescription drops or tablets.

If experts have established the cause of the appearance of white discharge, then both the man and the woman partner will need to be treated, since there is a risk of re-infection from the partner. Before starting therapy, it is important to do all the research that is required. Since the treatment will be ineffective. If misdiagnosed, treatment can harm a man's body.

Features of some diseases and how they are transmitted

There are different diseases that pose a danger to men at different ages:

• Chlamydia Such a pathological ailment refers to infectious diseases that are transmitted through unprotected sexual intercourse. Chlamydia is considered its causative agent.
• Mycoplasmosis. The disease spreads through infectious infections. The causative agents of the disease in question are microorganisms. They are called mycoplasmas.
• Ureaplasmosis. The disease is transmitted through sexual contact. Its main pathogens are unicellular microorganisms. They are called ureaplasmas.
• Trichomoniasis. In most cases, white discharge, accompanied by a foamy consistency, is often evidence of the presence in the body of a disease such as trichomoniasis.

conclusions

White discharge can be symptoms of very unpleasant and dangerous diseases, including prostatitis. They are accompanied by difficulty urinating.

If white discharge appears in men, then this is a weighty cause for concern. If it is constantly postponed with treatment, then urological diseases can turn into more complex forms of ailments, including impotence and infertility.

Self-diagnosis of pathology is impossible at home. Therefore, it is ineffective to carry out treatment with the help of one's own strength. Most of the attempts led to the distortion of the symptoms of diseases. It is important to refer exclusively to specialists.

But before seeking help from a doctor, you should find out what is normal and what should cause anxiety.

The appearance of such signs can be caused by various factors.

The normal state of the body

Discharge from the urethra in men can occur due to normal processes in the body. Not every time such discharge can be considered an indicator of a disease. The following discharge in men testifies to the normal functioning of the body, the reasons for which can be varied:

1. With sexual arousal, transparent discharge appears on the head of the penis. This is due to the work of the urethral glands, and this phenomenon is aimed at protecting the inner surface of the urethra. In this case, it is worth repeating that it appears with arousal or morning erection.
2. The appearance of sperm during sexual intercourse or during emission.
3. The so-called defecation prostatorrhea is the occurrence of discharge from the opening of the urethra. This is explained by the fact that the prostate fits snugly against the walls of the rectum, therefore, during the passage of feces, the prostate can be compressed, which becomes the reason for the appearance of fluid from the urethra.
4. In a small amount, prostate secretion can also be secreted during urination, the so-called voiding prostatorrhea.

Discharge from the urethra in men is not always a sign of any inflammatory processes. Such signs are episodic. White discharge does not lead to pain, there are no male disorders, so there is no cause for concern.

What should be of concern?

The male body is designed so that any changes in its functioning are immediately visible to men. As soon as such discharge from the urethra has become a frequent occurrence, they change their color and consistency, you should consult a doctor. It should be said about the signs:

1. The discharge in men, which appears from the urethra, is pathological in nature, there are gray, yellow, green fluids.
2. If blood appears in the urine during urination, you should immediately seek help from a doctor.
3. If an unpleasant odor emanates from the penis, then this is a clear sign of an inflammatory process and the activity of microorganisms, which can lead to inflammation, a white liquid appears.
4. Pathological discharge, in contrast to normal discharge, is accompanied by pain, discomfort. These symptoms are especially aggravated by urination or agitation.
5. Discharge in men may indicate the presence of a disease. In this case, they can often be confused with ordinary ones, so they are the most difficult to recognize. In turn, delay can lead to the onset of a chronic form of the disease.

What needs to be done in order to recognize the danger in time? You should be especially careful about your health and follow a number of rules:

1. Great care should be taken when using the toilet after sleep. During the period of sleep, discharge can accumulate in the urethra, therefore, if it occurs, it is much easier to recognize in the morning.
2. Underwear is of particular importance. If even during the whole day at least one drop is released from the urethra, after drying, it will leave a well-distinguishable mark.
3. When you press on the penis, especially if you run your hand from the pubis to the head of the organ, white mucus is released. It can be of other colors and consistency, depending on the disease.
4. Unhealthy diet can also lead to the occurrence of such phenomena, especially the use of food containing a lot of spices and alcohol.
5. The sponges of the urethral opening stick together or crusts form on them - all this can indicate the release of fluid, which then dries out.
6. Most sexually transmitted diseases are sexually transmitted, so you shouldn't forget about it either. If, after accidental contact, white discharge occurs, you should seek help, it is not recommended to treat yourself.

With what it can be connected?

White discharge from the urethra or other white fluids are important signs of inflammation. The same must be said for purulent discharge. Doctors can extract a sufficient amount of information if they study the secreted fluid and make a diagnosis, start treatment.

Discharge in men may indicate the following diseases:

1. Urethritis is the most common cause. The urethra tries to protect itself with the help of glands on its own, which is why white mucus appears in its mucous membrane in the required amount.
2. Sexually transmitted diseases, which include gonorrhea, chlamydia, mycoplasmosis or ureaplasmosis.
3. Penile cancer, which also produces fluid due to inflammation of the urethra.
4. The appearance of inflammation may be due to bacteria from other organs entering the genitourinary tract. This is due to a weakened health, immune system, poor hygiene, or trauma.
5. The appearance of discharge with blood is a serious sign that can speak of oncological pathology of the prostate.

The consistency of the discharge, its color and transparency are the result of any processes occurring in the man's body. Therefore, a certain color of the discharge is explained by the following factors:

1. If epithelial cells are present in large numbers, then the discharge is gray and highly viscous.
2. A large number of leukocytes enter the inflammatory focus during the multiplication of bacteria. For this reason, yellow discharge appears, sometimes green.
3. White mucus, resembling curd mass, often indicates the development of candidiasis.
4. It is worth noting that the appearance of various secretions can occur in different ways, depending on the situation. At the onset of the disease, it can be a white discharge, which then changes to yellow. This happens if the body has time to respond to a problem in the body.

What to do in such situations?

Allocations in men immediately become a reason for going to a doctor, if it does not concern the normal functioning of the body. One examination will not be enough to make a diagnosis, therefore, a series of analyzes of the released fluid is required.

It is not worth treating or trying to be treated on your own, you need to visit a urologist or venereologist... The doctor, in coordination with the patient, will prescribe studies that include microscopy of secretions, culture on culture media or polymerase chain reaction, if previous methods have not yielded results.

It is not recommended to take medications before visiting a medical facility, as this can complicate the diagnosis of the disease. When a venereal disease is established, both partners are subject to examination so that there is no further re-infection. If inflammation and mucus are found in both, treatment is prescribed for each partner.

The urogenital tract of the male body is a complex system of organs, the activities of which are closely interconnected. In view of this, any deviation in the work of one of the elements of the system will certainly affect the functioning of the rest. Violations can be identified by characteristic signs, one of which is white excretions in men.

Quite often, the appearance of fluid from the urethra indicates the course of inflammation caused by damage to the tissues and mucous membranes of the prostate, seminal vesicles, testicles or urethra. However, discharge can also be of a non-pathological nature, being the result of physiological processes in the body. Each representative of the stronger sex must know in what cases it is worth contacting a specialist, and what is considered normal.

Sign of disease

White discharge in men often occurs against the background of the course of such diseases:

• urethritis;
• prostatitis;
• sexually transmitted diseases belonging to the STD group;
• bacterial inflammation;
• candidiasis;
• penile cancer;
• oncology of the prostate.

With the development of an ailment such as urethritis, the mucous membrane of the urethra becomes inflamed and the functions of the urethral glands become more active. They begin to produce a secretion that is necessary to protect the urethra and reduce inflammation. Thus, white mucus is secreted from the opening of the canal, which is a product of the gonads. The same is observed with inflammation of the prostate gland (prostatitis).

When infected with ureaplasmosis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, mycoplasmosis and other sexually transmitted pathologies, white discharge from the urethra also appears, caused by inflammation of the urinary tract. This symptom is complemented by a burning sensation and itching in the external genital area.

With a weakening of immunity and neglect of personal hygiene, bacteria can enter the genitourinary system, provoking inflammation and white discharge in men. Trauma and organ damage are also considered similar reasons.

The formation of cancer cells in the tissues of the penis also causes inflammation, accompanied by the release of a white exudate. Penis cancer is a serious medical condition that requires immediate treatment.

A less dangerous cause of this symptom is candidiasis - thrush in men, in which white discharge appears on the head of the penis, resembling cottage cheese. If blood particles are observed in the fluid secreted from the urethra, then this may be a symptom of prostate cancer.

It is worth saying that during the course of many of the diseases under consideration, the discharge can gradually change its consistency and color. Exacerbation of inflammatory processes causes the exudate to acquire a grayish, greenish or yellowish tint, become sticky or slimy, and exude an unpleasant odor. Most often this happens with the development of purulent inflammation.

The causes of white discharge can be long-term antibiotic treatment and chemotherapy.

Non-pathological factors

White discharge in men can occur due to natural physiological mechanisms in the body.

Important: if white discharge appears only intermittently and does not cause discomfort, then there is no reason for concern.

In the case when the process of urination, defecation is constantly accompanied by the appearance of a secretion from the urethra and at the same time there is pain, cramps or burning, men need to seek help from a urologist.

Untimely treatment of pathologies of the organs of the genitourinary system can lead to complications and a chronic course of diseases.

Treatment

When white discharge in men is not associated with normal body activity, this is the reason for a comprehensive examination.

After identifying the main cause of the inflammatory process, the doctor will diagnose and prescribe the appropriate therapy. Diagnostics includes mandatory a study of the fluid secreted from the urethra, which makes it possible to determine the presence of the causative agent of inflammation and the nature of the course of the disease.

At the first stage of treatment, patients are prescribed broad-spectrum antibiotics, able to cope with different types of infection. After establishing the nature of the pathogen, those drugs are used to which the pathological microorganism is especially sensitive. The therapy is complemented immunomodulatory drugs and vitamin complexes.

If a specific exudate occurs, you should not try to fix the problem yourself. Improper treatment and the use of ineffective drugs can aggravate the situation and lead to serious consequences.

Discharge in men from the urethra can tell a lot about health. Color, odor, consistency are the main aspects that you need to pay attention to first. It is on them that you can independently identify pathological processes at the initial stages of their development and promptly seek help from a doctor.

Conditionally all male dischargesubdivided into two groups - physiological and pathological. Physiological does not require any therapeutic measures and third-party interventions. And pathological ones indicate the development of diseases that can lead to serious health problems, so they need to be treated immediately.

There are various physiological conditions accompanied by urethral discharge. These include:

• libidinal urethrorrhea;
• defecation prostatorrhea;
• smegma;
• ejaculation.

Libidous urethrorrhea

It is characterized by the appearance of a small amount of discharge at certain times - with a strong erection or in the morning after waking up. The discharge does not have a specific odor, color (they are transparent) and does not cause any discomfort.

Such discharge is the norm and they perform a very important function - they envelop the spermatozoa, thereby providing them with protection after penetration into the female vagina, where there is a destructive environment for them. Thus, the spermatozoa safely reach the uterus.

Important! This clear liquid contains sperm and if it gets into a woman's vagina, the risk of pregnancy increases significantly, even if there is no ejaculation.

Defecating prostatorrhea

Important! To once and for all get rid of problems with secretions and disruption of the cycle - use unique medicinal phytotampons. After using phytotampons for 3 weeks, more than 90% of women noted a significant improvement in health. Almost 60% of them completely got rid of their problems, the rest (as a rule, in the presence of serious stages of the disease) showed significant progress in treatment.

During bowel emptying, a person squeezes, which leads to an increase in pressure in the peritoneum, as a result of which a clear liquid begins to appear in the urethra. As in the previous case, it does not smell of anything, but it may contain blotches of gray or white.

The mucous consistency of such secretions is determined by the content of secretory fluid, which is produced by the prostate, and seminal vesicles. Some men notice the presence of such discharge on the head of the penis immediately after urinating. This condition is also the norm, only it is called a little differently - voiding prostatorrhea.

It is a preputial lubricant that has protective functions. It is produced by the glands located in the head and foreskin. If a man carefully monitors his hygiene, then these discharge almost never bother him. But if hygiene is not observed, smegma begins to accumulate between the shaft of the penis and the foreskin, creating a favorable environment for the reproduction of pathogenic bacteria.

As a result of their vital activity, smegma can change its color (acquire a white, yellow or greenish tint) and exhaust the unpleasant odor. This condition does not pose a serious threat to the life of a man, but it can provoke the further development of serious diseases, for example, balanoposthitis, which is characterized by swelling of the glans penis, purulent discharge and painful sensations.

Ejaculation

This condition is characterized by the discharge of semen from the urethra. It contains sperm, the amount of which determines the color of the sperm secreted. The more of them, the whiter the secreted secret.

However, it should be noted that in some men the sperm has a very thick consistency and contains lumps. This indicates a too high density of sperm and their sticking to each other. This condition is not a pathology and does not require any intervention, only if the man does not plan to have more children. Clear semen suggests the opposite - a low sperm count in semen.

Ejaculation can occur spontaneously at night. This condition is called spermatorrhea. It can be observed in both adult men and little boys. Normally, the presence of spermatorrhea is considered no more than 1-2 times a month. If such discharge is observed more often, then it is necessary to visit a doctor, as this may indicate hormonal changes in the body, which can be provoked by various pathologies.

Pathological discharge

Data discharge in menhave their own classification. They are conventionally divided into infectious and non-infectious. In this case, the former are classified as specific and nonspecific. Specific discharge occurs with the development of STDs. Non-specific pathologies include diseases, the development of which is provoked by opportunistic microorganisms that are causative agents of diseases such as:

• candidiasis;
• mycoplasma urethritis;
• herpetic urethritis, etc.

Discharge of a non-infectious nature can occur due to inflammation of the urethra, which can be provoked by the following factors:

• mechanical and chemical damage to the urethra;
• allergic reactions;
• narrowing of the urethra, etc.

"By secret"

Have you ever suffered from menstrual problems?
Judging by the fact that you are now reading this text, problems still bother you. And you know well what it is:

• Profuse or scanty clotted discharge.
• Pain in the chest and lower back.
• Bad smell.
• Discomfort when urinating.

Perhaps it is more correct to treat not the effect, but the cause? Follow the link to the interview of the chief gynecologist Leila Adamova, how she recommends to treat ...

Depending on the cause of the discharge and the degree of development of the pathological process, they can have a different color, texture and smell. They can be purulent, cloudy, bloody, gray, green, viscous, liquid, cheesy, etc.

White

There are several reasons why a white secret begins to stand out from the urethra in men. The most common of these is urethral candidiasis. The causative agents of this disease are fungi of the genus Candida. With a decrease in the body's defenses, they begin to actively multiply, which is accompanied not only by the appearance of discharge from the urethra, but also by such symptoms as:

• The head of the penis is covered with a whitish coating.
• Itching and burning appear.
• The head of the penis depletes the pungent sour odor.
• When emptying the bladder, pain is noted.
• Inflamed red spots appear on the mucous membranes.

Important! With the development of candidal urethritis, a whitish plaque can appear not only on the head of the penis, but also spread to the perineum, provoking peeling and itching of the skin.

With the development of candidal urethritis in a man, similar complaints may come from his sexual partner, and during sex, both partners may notice abundant cheesy discharge.

Mycoplasmosis, chlamydia and inflammation of the prostate can also provoke the appearance of white discharge in men. In the first two cases, the secreted secret depletes a sharp specific smell, while there are no visible changes in the state of the penis. There may be only slight reddening of the foreskin.

And inflammation of the prostate is often accompanied by symptoms such as:

• Violation of potency.
• Painful sensations when emptying the bladder.
• Frequent urge to urinate, while the amount of urine excreted decreases.
• Intermittent urination.
• The presence of unpleasant painful sensations during bowel movements (most often they are localized in the lower abdomen, but can spread to the lower back and perineum).

This condition needs to be treated immediately. Firstly, the lack of adequate treatment can lead to impotence and infertility, and secondly, inflammation of the prostate gland is fraught with the development of chronic prostatitis and prostate adenoma.

Transparent

Transparent discharge in menare not always physiological. Sometimes they can indicate the development of chlamydia and ureaplasmosis. As a rule, they are of a chronic nature and do not manifest themselves in any way during the period of remission. But at the moment of exacerbation, a significant increase in the level of leukocytes in the semen occurs, as a result of which they turn yellow or green.

In addition, transparent discharge occurs in diseases such as trichomoniasis and gonorrhea. In this case, they become abundant and become slimy. Sometimes they can be accompanied by additional symptoms - burning sensation when urinating or ejaculation, itching, etc.

Purulent

May have a yellowish or green tint. Basically, they indicate the development of sexually transmitted diseases. The most common of these is gonorrhea. It manifests itself as a thick yellow-green discharge, which depletes a putrid odor, as well as painful sensations when urinating.

Purulent discharge can also occur with trichomoniasis. This disease is also accompanied by painful urination, false urge and heaviness in the lower abdomen.

With an unpleasant, pungent odor

As already mentioned, the appearance of an unpleasant odor is caused by non-observance of the rules of personal hygiene and the accumulation of segma in the foreskin. But sometimes this symptom can indicate STDs, which have already been mentioned above, as well as diseases accompanied by metabolic disorders in the body, for example, diabetes mellitus.

Bloody issues

They arise with the development of infectious processes in the urethra. The most common symptom is the development of gonorrhea, trichomoniasis and candidiasis. The amount of discharge depends on the duration of the course of the disease and on the stage of its development.

Sometimes blood from the urethra can be observed with mechanical damage to the urinary tract during the performance of various medical procedures, as well as with the development of cancer.

Treatment

Physiological discharge does not require any treatment. If a man is worried about their abundance, which causes him discomfort, then he should more carefully follow the rules of personal hygiene. And pathological discharge is always treated on an individual basis.

Here, the treatment tactics depend on several factors - what caused the development of the pathology and at what stage of its development it is. Treatment may include anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, hormonal, or immune-boosting therapy.

Remember that you should never self-medicate. If you notice signs of infectious diseases in yourself, then immediately contact your doctor, as only he can choose the right treatment that will quickly and effectively solve this problem.
