Discharge from the female and male genitals is the norm, but sometimes it can talk about diseases. Often, abnormal discharge becomes a harbinger of sexually transmitted infections.
The discharge when aroused in men is called pre-ejaculation. It is secreted by Cooper urethral glands. The liter glands are an additional site for the formation of the precumus. They secrete a muddy liquid. Their number varies and depends on the characteristics of the organism or the duration of abstinence. This secretion contains sperm that can fertilize an egg.
The bulb glands secrete secretions that hydrate the urethra, maintain an alkaline environment, and provide a favorable environment for sperm survival through the urethra.
Premature ejaculation is also excreted in masturbation, in anticipation of penetration, in the early stages of sexual intercourse.
The function of this secretion is to neutralize the acidic environment in the urethra, which is caused by urine. The vagina is also an acidic environment, due to the penetration of pre-ejaculate the environment changes to alkaline, which helps to save sperm. Another feature is the lubrication role during intimacy.
Discharge in men is a natural physiological reaction of the body.
The smeg is a physiological discharge from the glands at the top of the penis. Their number is small. They are removed with hygiene and do not cause discomfort. In the absence of hygiene or failure to follow the rules, smegma accumulates under the almonds and can lead to inflammatory diseases such as balanoposthitis.
Sperm is released during the ejaculation process, it contains sexual secretions and sperm.
Ejaculation is an involuntary ejaculation, usually during sleep that occurs during puberty or in men who abstain for a long time.
If a man notices that the amount of these secretions and their character have changed, he should consult a doctor. Abnormal discharge in men can be cloudy, gray, yellow, thick, cheesy. Their appearance is accompanied by a burning sensation, pain and discomfort in the urethra.
Normal rates of male discharge
The discharge in men during arousal is of individual volume. If a person is in control of his health, then he knows his norm.
They are usually transparent, free of pungent odors, quite thick and sticky.
Physiologically, the amount of discharge increases with prolonged abstinence from intimacy. In this case they become thicker and cloudier. Distribution rates:
- Watery and transparent;
- The smell is not pronounced;
- Medium density.
Food, stress, chronic diseases, bad habits can affect the change in secretion.
Rules of intimate hygiene for men:
- Use a neutral acid soap.
- Wash your genitals 2 times a day.
- Rinse the glans by cutting the calf.
- Avoid overheating the testicles.
- Linen should be made of wide and natural fabrics.
Female discharge
Discharges in women during arousal are called lubrication. It has a clean, odorless liquid on the face. Fluid is secreted by the vaginal epithelial glands. And it includes leukocyte cells and microorganisms that are representatives of the normal microflora of the vagina.
Vaginal secretion is also secreted in a normal state, its amount is up to 5 ml per day. During arousal, the amount increases due to the blood supply to the gonads. Given the physiological characteristics of the body, some girls have more, others - less.
Discharge during arousal is an absolutely normal physiological phenomenon in women.
The presence of lubrication ensures comfortable penetration of the penis into the vagina. During ovulation, the composition of the vaginal secretions changes to ensure conception.
In addition, the composition of the vaginal discharge changes during the menstrual cycle. At the beginning of the cycle, they are transparent and watery. Their function at this stage is to protect the mucous membrane from infection. The closer they get to ovulation, the thicker they become, they smell like egg whites. After ovulation, the amount of discharge decreases and girls have dryness in the days before menstruation.
Normal rates of vaginal secretion
Female discharge rate:
- Liquid, transparent;
- Jelly-like during ovulation;
- A small amount that increases closer to ovulation and then decreases;
- Faint odor, without unpleasant shadow;
- Do not irritate the vaginal mucosa or the skin of the external genitalia;
- Not accompanied by subjective sensations.
During sexual intercourse, the amount of mucous discharge from the vagina increases - a sign of arousal.
Ejaculation occurs in women during peak orgasm. It does not contain germ cells such as male ejaculate. It is secreted from glandular tissue near the urethra. Unlike men, the release of such a secret can occur several times during a single sexual intercourse. Its number is much higher than that of men. The abundance of ejaculate indicates that the woman is getting maximum pleasure.
Hygiene rules for normalizing vaginal secretion:
- Use special soap for intimate hygiene. The composition should contain lactic acid to maintain an acid-base environment in the vagina.
- With a large amount of discharge, sanitary pads are used daily, which are changed regularly.
- Wear linen from natural fabrics.
- It is recommended to wash your head twice a day.
