Men sooner or later have some questions about their health. Erectile problems can occur at any age. Nowadays, specialists are increasingly faced with complaints about the state of erection in young people under the age of 25. From this it can be seen that the problem has "rejuvenated" significantly. Erectile dysfunction occurs for various reasons: stress, overload, diseases of the cardiovascular system, unhealthy lifestyle, hormonal imbalance, unhealthy diet. A man can identify some pathologies himself- Due to the type of discharge during an erection, after all, a timely call for help from a doctor guarantees a full, painless treatment.
Normal discharge when excited
Discharge in men from the penis during arousal before intercourse is perfectly normal. The release of secretions when an erection is stimulated is known in medicine as libidinal urethrorhea. The quantity and quality of such secretions can be completely different depending on the characteristics of a particular man's body.
Normally, when you get an erection, you should see a clear liquid leak out of your urethra. This liquid has a medium thickness. The amount and duration of such a secret depends on the degree of erection and arousal. That is, the stronger the arousal and desire, the more fluid it is observed before sexual intercourse begins. It is important to know that such a discharge in men also contains a certain amount of sperm. This means that pregnancy can occur even if intercourse is interrupted.
So the normal discharge during an erection is as follows:
- Urethritis;
- Smegma;
- Sperm.
As is already known, the urethra is a secret that is secreted when exposed to some excitement. It is worth noting that libidinal urethral rhea can be discharged in the morning after waking up. This also applies as a standard for men. Smegma is a secret secreted by a gland on the head of the penis. These secretions are absent in men who carefully monitor personal hygiene. Smegma is made up of fat secreted by the sebum glands. The secret gathers under the skin of the glans. It is easy to rinse off when you shower, and a small amount is considered the norm.
If you do not follow the rules of personal hygiene, then smegma begins to actively attract attention during an erection. This is fertile soil for many pathogenic microorganisms to multiply. And such a pathogenic microflora can cause various complications in intimate life. When you ejaculate, sperm is expelled from the urethra. After that, the erection usually subsides and disappears entirely. Sperm contains a large amount of sperm, the secret of the sex glands. The color of this secret is usually white. If no sperm escapes during sexual intercourse, this indicates serious potency problems. Usually, ejaculation should occur no later than an hour after sexual intercourse has started.
Pathological discharge
Sometimes too much urethral discharge during an erection can indicate an abnormality. Some diseases are accurately diagnosed by the nature of the pathological discharge. In fact, very often men do not have any other symptoms. That is why it is very important for young people to be aware of changes of all kinds.
So, a discharge that goes beyond the normal range can indicate the presence of such diseases:
- Sexually transmitted diseases;
- Inflammatory processes in the genitourinary system;
- Urethritis;
- Prostatitis;
- Balanitis;
- Oncological diseases;
- Complications after trauma to the penis.
The secret secreted in men during an erection may be too short or, conversely, too big. Also in pathology, the color and consistency of this secret play an important role. As a rule, a discharge that is too thick or too fluid is considered unacceptable. In this case, the color may not be white, but yellow, gray, and tinged with green. Blood or pus contamination may be present. If the secret is transparent, but thick and drawing, then we can talk about the presence of such diseases as mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis and chlamydia.
In this case, if you pass laboratory tests, too many leukocytes are detected. If the disease is in a severe, advanced form, pus is observed in the discharge. In a disease like chlamydia, the discharge collects on the glans and sticks to the foreskin.
Not less rarely, a pathological discharge occurs during an erection against the background of other diseases:
- Candidiasis;
- Staphylococcus aureus;
- Streptococci;
- Escherichia coli.
At the same time, young people complain not only of pathological discharge during erection, but also of itching, burning and swelling of the tissues of the penis. An abnormal secret does not always indicate the presence of problems of the genitourinary system. Inflammation of the genitals, both external and internal, can occur against the background of allergies, narrowing of the urethra, chemical poisoning, mechanical action on the mucous membranes of the genital organs. As soon as a man discovers a pathology, it is important to consult a doctor in a timely manner. The specialist will prescribe the correct method of treatment. This will help avoid possible complications.
