Children who have watched science popularization movies know that pregnancy is a process of sperm and egg binding. At conception, the male sperm enters the female egg, forming a cell that continuously divides and eventually combines into various parts of the baby's body. So, strong sperm are more likely to successfully conceive. But what's wrong with male sperm turning yellow?
Generally speaking, freshly ejaculated semen is viscous, milky white, and contains gray white clots. After about 10-20 minutes, the clots liquefy on their own and become a semi transparent, cloudy, and thin mucus. The odor of semen is produced by the secretion of arginine from the prostate gland in semen, which is a unique fishy smell. If the semen appears yellow, it may indicate inflammation such as prostatitis; Prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis can cause non-specific inflammation of the prostate and seminal vesicles, tuberculosis of the reproductive system, tumors or stones, and yellow or brown purulent semen. And semen contains urine, causing the sperm to turn yellow. In addition, those who have not ejaculated for a long time may also appear slightly pale yellow. Taking certain antibiotics and engaging in intense sexual activity can cause semen to become more transparent; Sexual activity with longer intervals produces semen with a yellowish color.

If men do not engage in sexual activity for a long time, the concentration of semen will be higher, and the semen will naturally have a temporary yellowing phenomenon.
