Mucus discharge from the urethra during erection is gray, discharge during puberty in young men, involuntary ejaculation at night due to prolonged abstinence and, finally, sperm during orgasm is the natural fluid of healthy men. Everything else can be seen as pathological. They can be the first sign of a serious illness. Have you ever noticed the release of fluid and mucus during an erection? What to do in this case? If the discharge during erection has an unpleasant odor, contrasting with a transparent color, contains blood clots, then the urgent need to see a doctor.
Healthy male secretions and their abnormalities
Iftransparent mucus is released during erection, then this indicates the health of the genitourinary organs and is called:
- urethrorrhea - fluid, when aroused, has no odor and color, occurs in the morning after a night's sleep or during an erection before sexual intercourse. The amount depends on the individual physiological characteristics of the man. Such transparent discharge during erection helps sperm pass through the urethral canal and contains some male germ cells. It is not a pathological process;
- spegma - fat produced by the sebaceous glands located in the glans penis area. If a man bathes on time and is careful with his personal hygiene, fatty substances do not accumulate and are washed away without residue. If you do not clean such mucus during a timely erection, it will serve as an excellent breeding ground for many pathogenic microorganisms, and besides, it will emit an unpleasant odor over time. This leads to prostatitis, urethritis, cystitis and other unpleasant diseases.
Any other discharge from the penis during erection indicates the presence of inflammation of an infectious or non-infectious nature.
Discharge during erection in men, which has a color other than transparent, blood clots and an unpleasant odor can be caused by:
- gonorrhea and chlamydia;
- candidiasis or genital herpes;
- inflammation of the ureaplasma or mycoplasma;
- trichomoniasis.
This is the contagious nature of the appearance of pathogenic fluid and mucus from the glans penis. Non -communicable include:
- mechanical impact, causing injury to the head of the penis;
- manifestations of allergic nature;
- use of drugs;
- harmful effects of toxic chemicals;
- narrowing of the urethral lumen.
With all pathologies, during an erection, fluid is released, which differs in quantity, color and odor. This is due to the different inflammatory processes, their intensity and origin.
The provisions in this case are:
- cloudy if they contain a large number of infected cells;
- thick, with a gray color, when they have a high content of dermis and dead fat;
- yellowish or greenish, indicating the presence of purulent inflammation;
- contains droplets of blood or blood clots.
It is impossible to determine visually in this situation what exactly the man's disease is. For this, it is important to do some diagnostic studies and analysis.
What is meant by discharge in men?
Whitish fluid and mucus indicate the onset of candidiasis and are characterized by the following symptoms:
- the head of the penis is covered with a white layer, which dries and acquires the smell of sour yeast;
- in this area, severe itching and burning, sores and pain in the perineum begin;
- erections produce white mucus. It also occurs during urination and intercourse.
Special transparent secret for:
- chlamydia;
- ureaplasmosis;
- gonorrhea;
- trichomoniasis.
Gradually, if you do not take steps, the liquid will take on a yellow or green color. This is evidence of an increase in leukocytes in the blood and an increase in inflammatory processes, which can lead to not only prostatitis, but also prostate cancer. They are accompanied by a sharp painful sensation, can occur before sexual intercourse, throughout the day and even at night.
When the erection is released, yellow mucus is released.
This is the first sign that a man may be infected with a venereal disease. Yellow color is a sign of the presence of pus, urethral mucus and an increase in the number of white blood cells. In this case, gonorrhea is also accompanied by severe pain during urination, and the mucus has a very unpleasant foul odor. Trichomoniasis does not manifest itself for a long time. But after a while, the pain becomes unbearable during the trip to the toilet and in a calm state, especially in the lower abdomen and in the perineum.
Fluid and mucus with blood
Accompanied by infectious diseases, for example, gonorrhea, Trichomonas, candidal prostatitis. They can be caused by a variety of injuries as a result of non -professional diagnostic examinations. For example, while using a catheter, during cytoscopy or bougienage. But the blood fluid in such cases is short -lived, has a red color and contains no impurities.
The presence of blood may indicate stone movement. In such cases, the liquid is colorless, odorless, but only blood clots or ichor. Usually accompanied by a painful sensation.
The biggest danger in detecting blood from the penis is cancer. And not just the prostate gland. Cancer cells can be found in the kidneys, ureters, bladder, testicles. The discharge accompanies the man throughout the day and remains in the form of dry dark spots on his underwear, which are completely odorless.
It is unlikely that the color, smell, quantity, time of excretion exceed the pathological changes that take place in the male body. To do this, you need to undergo a full examination and diagnosis by a specialist. Especially if they are accompanied by uncomfortable and painful sensations.
