Question 1

what is the consistency of normal semen?

Accepted Answer

Varies: It is sticky to watery in consistency, there is a wide variation here.

Semen clots almost immediately after ejaculation, forming a sticky, jelly-like liquid. It will liquefy again in 5 to 40 minutes. It is quite normal for semen to form jelly-like globules and this does not indicate any health or fertility problem.

Question 2

normally whenever i masturbate my semen comes out as a pretty normal consistency but ive noticed that after foreplay (making out for a long time, dry humping, etc.) my semen tends to come out very thin/watery. how do i stop this from happening?

Accepted Answer

: More frequent ejaculation is a common cause of more watery sperm.  I'm not sure that your sperm is abnormal as it's not always watery. Try less masturbation or consult a urologist if you still have concerns. A sperm analysis can be done to assure your sperm is normal.and that you don't have a low sperm count which is another cause of more watery sperm.

Question 3

does semen's consistency suggest the level of potency too?

Accepted Answer

Potency: Semen should have different consistencies.  Semen that liquefied in is watery may be worrisome for potential infertility.   There are other factors such as volume a perm count shape normal forms. A semen analysis is the best way to determine potential for pregnancy and conception

Question 4

i've got a problem with my semen. i've noticed compared to my partners is that mine has a consistency of water and has little white in it. is this bad?

Accepted Answer

No: everyone's bodily fluid can look different especially depending on diet and whether a person is well hydrated.  However if there is pain, foul smell, irritation, or recent contact with someone who may have a sexually transmitted disease, you should be evaluated in person by a doctor.

Question 5

my semen has changed consistency from thick jelly white to watery and white. even if it is thicker it liqifies in under a minute and this has been going on for 8 months i masturbate 4 times a week every week for 4 years could this be overejaculation?

Accepted Answer

: Could be. In any case, it is not a matter to be concerned about. Try reducing the frequency of masturbation to see if that changes the appearance of semen.
For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. 
Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Accepted Answer

No: Can see your doctor and/or have a sperm count and viability test if you are concerned. Hope all is well with you.
