Hi,

But, there is nothing to worry if it is thick or thin as it's quality does not depend on its consistency. If you are doubtful, you can get a semen analysis done once.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello,

But this is unlikely to be a prostatic problem since there is no blood in semen. However, this could be due to a urinary tract infection which can be diagnosed by a urine analysis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
