Why is semen jelly-like?
Disease description:
Last night, during intercourse with my husband, I noticed that his ejaculate appeared gelatinous. Today, I urged him to see a doctor, but he dismissed it, believing it’s not a serious condition. So, I’d like to ask: What does it mean when semen has a gelatinous consistency?

Hello, normal semen is typically gelatinous or jelly-like and usually liquefies completely within 30 minutes, turning into a liquid state. Therefore, if the semen appears grayish-white or slightly yellow, has no unusual odor, and is not accompanied by discomfort such as scrotal dampness or itching, it is considered normal. However, excessively yellow semen may suggest prostatitis or seminal vesiculitis. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a pleasant and healthy life!
