Occasionally, there are men who have dry orgasms. In other words, they have little or no expulsion of semen. This is called retrograde ejaculation. This takes place when the semen enters the bladder instead of naturally going out of the penis.
When men reach climax, it’s possible that the amount of semen ejaculated is very little or there is even none at all. Even though it’s not harmful to their health, it’s a serious problem if they want to have children.
If you have this problem, you should consult a professional, especially if you want to have a child.
Below, you can take a look at some information about this type of ejaculation.
As the semen flows from the prostate to the urethra within the penis, the muscle of the bladder neck become tense. This muscle is located at the entrance to the bladder. Then, it closes to prevent premature ejaculation between the bladder.
Retrograde ejaculation occurs when the muscle of the bladder neck is tightened and it loses the ability to close the passage of semen into the bladder.
During retrograde ejaculation, the entry of semen into the bladder prevents it from exiting.
Among the symptoms of retrograde ejaculation, you can find:
Dry orgasms: Very little or no semen comes out.
Cloudy urine after orgasm: This is due to the presence of semen.
Male infertility: The female is unable to become pregnant, despite the fact that the couple is having continuous sex without using any birth control method.
