What causes gelatin like lumps in the semen?
Patient: my boyfriend's semen is normal looking but has chunky pieces in it jello-like in texture and they stay jello-like they dont melt or anything i know he used to do a lot of drugs before we started dating is it just side effects from smoking crack? (he's been clean for a year and half now) or is it infertility? does he have an STD? cause before we started dating i made him get checked out considering his past and he turned up clean on the tests. he says that his semen has had chunks in it for quite awhile but it kinda conserns me like i dont want to catch anything and i do want to have a child someday Doctor: Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.These symptoms and signs are suggestive of STD especially if there is associated pain, fever, urethral discharge and recent sexual intercourse. So this is the first thing to rule out by doing STD testing. Second, it may be sign of uroinfection o urinary stones and some other genital infection but this is less common. In every case, antibiotic therapy may be required so test should be done as soon as possible so that appropriate treatment can be started. Till that try to drink plenty of fluids, avoid sexual intercourse and rest.I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
