Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello Dr - I m 63 years old and very fit for my age. I recently have had my annual prostrate check up and the results were top of the class . However ,I ve noticed my sperm colour to be translucent in colour ? Please advise on possible concerns. Noting :- I ride mountain bike events for my training regime ????
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern... Human semen color can range from translucent milky white to slight yellowish tint. So translucent colour of semen is absolutely normal. If you ever see reddish or pinkish discoloration of semen, then you need to be concerned, otherwise not. Translucent colour may be attributed to less sperm quantity in semen. This happens when you have masturbated/sex in last 12 hours or so.
Don't worry you are fine Hope this information helps.
