What Causes Thick Sperms?

Hello I was doing some research online... I have found a lot of different answers but my question is my boyfriend has clumpy sperm. Wondering the cause and if we can still have a baby? At this time we have had to luck, does this issue have anything to due with me not conceiving? We both have children with our previous relationship. I m 28 and he is 31. Thanks for any help Katie. Sorry

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

If both of you have children from previous relationships then there should not be any worry regarding having children again. The clumpy semen you have noticed need not always be abnormal. It is important to get the semen tested in a laboratory to know the actual semen characteristics. Seeing it during ejaculation or sex as a clumpy material is not sufficient to comment about the sperm count and qualitative analysis. Since you both are still young adults, please do not worry for conception.
