why is a man's sperm sometimes so runny or thick?

Question

i was wondrering coz mine is quite runny

Answer 1

If you are worried about this one see your doc. Semen normally coagulates when in contact with the air making it thick. Semen will also coagulate when in contact with the acidy discharge in a woman's vagina (Usually there to protect the woman from invasive infections and the like kind). It also depends on how long ago you last ejaculated, more often usually ends up just dripping matey! (Too much masturbation here!)

Answer 2

Here's an excerpt from my hubby's database:

--------------------------------------------------

Consistency of semen isn't very consistent; you've probably noticed that the thickness of your ejaculate can vary from day to day. This is because the quality of the fluid is very susceptible to a number of factors. Diet, exercise and frequency of sex can all dictate how thick or watery your emissions are, as can the tightness of the clothes that you wear (tight clothing will increase body temperature and can thus impact sperm motility.

Actual semen quantity differs among individuals and can also change for the same individual during different times of his life. Genetics plays an important part in how much a male will ejaculate. Most males ejaculate about one teaspoon of semen. Some medications may affect the amount of semen produced. And you will notice that the longer you take between orgasms the larger the quantity of semen you will ejaculate. (You've probably noticed that if you masturbate more than once a day that the second, third or fourth time you achieve orgasm you release smaller and smaller quanitities of semen. Wait overnight and see how much more your body made while you were asleep.) Additionally, the more aroused you get and the longer you take to ejaculate, the more semen your body will produce. Foreplay — touching yourself in special ways in special places — will sometimes stimulate the body to produce more semen, since the body's reproductive glands (such as the prostate) work harder when you're aroused.

Semen from a mature male is usually a milky or pearly-white color. It is not uncommon to see a yellowish tint to the semen if you've abstained from ejaculation for a while. Semen colored with red streaks may signify blood. If you occasionally see a bit of blood it's not necessarily a cause for alarm, but if you see a lot of it, or if it persists, the condition should be brought to the attention of your physician. The same goes any other drastic color changes, which may indicate infection.

Answer 3

Normal semen is light gray-white and thick enough. However, people's perceptions of viscosity or color can be quite variable, so I don't know that you have anything wrong.
Anyway, our loading isn't always the same but depending from our health state, from volume and density. If some hour before I already had a wa.nk then my semen will be different from that disharged previously, i.e.
At last, semen too aqueous is a sign of few spermatozoa while semen too pasty is a risk for spermatozoa.

Answer 5

The load only carries the sperm. The quality of the "load" is determined by frequecy of orgasim amoung a whole host of other things. Its mostly water a little urine, sugars and the sperm itself. Enjoy the release! Don't worry about its make up unless you have STDs or problems!

Answer 6

There are two different part to semen. The thick stuff is the actual baby making stuff. The watery stuff is seminal fluid, which makes it easier for the sperm to swim in.

Answer 7

if it is runny that means that u drank alot of water and there is a lot of sperm. Sometimes its thick cuz you didn't drink alot of water so its really thick.
