The assignment in men to arousal is a normal physiological phenomenon, due to the processes occurring in the organs of the reproductive system.
In medicine, the secretion of secretions from the urethra at the time of sexual stimulation is defined by the term libidinal urethra.
The amount of discharge can be different, as well as their nature. When an erection occurs, as a rule, a clear liquid of medium density comes out of the urethra. Its quantity and duration of excretion depend on the severity of sexual arousal.
Important: the discharge in men, when excited, contains active sperm (in small quantities), which, entering the woman's vagina, can fertilize an egg.
Therefore, representatives of the stronger sex need to be careful in the event that a partner's pregnancy is not planned.
In some situations, the amount of discharge is too abundant, and this may indicate the development of diseases of the genitourinary tract. Let's try to figure out which phenomena are considered a deviation from the norm and what should not cause concern.
Pathological conditions
By assessing the discharge from the urethra in men, one can judge the state of their genitourinary system.
The appearance of an unusual discharge from the urethra often serves as a symptom of the development of pathological disorders. In addition, some diseases can be suspected exclusively on this basis, since other specific phenomena may be absent. In view of this, it is important to be alert to any changes in the quality and quantity of secretions secreted.
Nonspecific discharge in men with excitement or at rest often indicates the development of such pathologies:
- Inflammatory processes in the genitourinary tract caused by opportunistic microorganisms or infectious agents.
- Diseases that become infected through the genital tract (STD).
- Oncological pathologies.
- Complications after surgery.
- The consequences of trauma to the organs of the genitourinary system.
The secret secreted by the urethra can be scarce, appear in moderate or abundant quantities. In addition, it may contain impurities of blood or pus. The color of the liquid can also be different: transparent, yellowish, greenish and so on. The consistency of the discharge (thick or liquid), like other characteristics, depends on the nature of the origin of the ailment and the type of pathogen. There are also such factors as the severity of the inflammatory process, the state of the immune system, the presence of concomitant diseases.
A transparent viscous discharge in men, when excited or in a calm state, can indicate such infectious pathologies: mycoplasmosis, chlamydia, ureaplasmosis. Such a pathological secret contains a large percentage of leukocytes. With a complicated course of these diseases, purulent impurities can be found in the discharge. If chlamydia develops, fluid builds up and attaches to the head of the penis, gluing the foreskin.
Most often, unusual discharge is the result of other infectious pathologies. We are talking about candidiasis, staphylococcal or streptococcal infection, Escherichia coli and so on. Men are worried not only about a strange discharge, but also about other signs of damage - itching, hyperemia, swelling of the tissues of the external genital organs.
The reasons for the appearance of a pathological secret can be the following factors:
- non-gonorrheal urethritis;
- hematorrhea;
- prostatorhea;
- balanoposthitis;
- spermatorrea.
If men observe changes in the nature of the discharge from the urethra, they should definitely seek the advice of a specialist, be examined and, if necessary, undergo appropriate treatment.
Normal states
To distinguish pathological from physiological discharge, it is necessary to know what is considered the norm.
- Libida urethrorrhea- that is, a secret formed under the influence of sexual stimulation.
- Semen- the fluid that comes out of the urethra during ejaculation. Such a discharge is white, contains a high percentage of sperm and a secret of the gonads. Sperm is produced during orgasm at the end of sexual intercourse, masturbation or during emission.
- Smegma- a secret secreted by the glands located in the glans region. Smegma does not appear in men who regularly perform hygiene procedures and monitor the cleanliness of the penis.
Conclusion
So, we found out what kind of discharge in men during arousal is a natural physiological phenomenon, and we also figured out what should be alarming and becomes a reason to contact a specialist.
Representatives of the stronger sex are advised to regularly undergo preventive examinations with a urologist and are attentive to their health!
