Is It Normal To Have An Opaque And Thick Semen After Ejaculation?

When I ejaculate. my semen is opaque, sort of clearish to greenish and fairly thick. Kind of looks like a thin vaseline. Is this normal. Most pics I have seen from other men appear to be white and thinner. I do take various medications, but seems like it was more or less like this before I started taking them.

Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

This is normal semen in appearance.

It's natural characteristics of the semen.. When it is ejaculated it is thick but after sometimes it liquefies because of the enzyme coagulase present in it.

Followed by some more times it again becomes jelly like. It is natural process for fertilisation.

In the pictures they are showing just for the information purpose and you should not compare it with it.

If you are having doubt than you should get your semen microscopically examined. This will give your semen analysis and also clears your mind from the doubt.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
