Sooner or later, men have some questions about their health. Erectile dysfunction can occur at any age. Today, specialists are increasingly faced with complaints about the erectile state of young people under the age of 25. From here it can be seen that the problem has "rejuvenated" significantly. Erectile dysfunction occurs for various reasons: stress, overwork, diseases of the cardiovascular system, unhealthy lifestyle, hormonal imbalance, unhealthy diet. A man can identify some pathologies on his own, due to the nature of the discharge during an erection. After all, a timely turn to the doctor for help guarantees a full-fledged painless treatment.
Normal discharge upon excitement
It is absolutely normal to ejaculate from the penis before sexual intercourse during arousal in men. In medicine, the release of secretions during the stimulation of an erection is called libidinal urethrorhea. The quantity and quality of such secretions can be completely different, depending on the characteristics of the organism of a particular person.
Normally, when an erection occurs, a clear fluid should come out of the urethra. This liquid is of medium thickness. The amount and duration of such a secret depends on the degree of erection and arousal. That is, the stronger the arousal and desire, the more fluid is observed before intercourse begins. It is important to know that even such discharge in men contains a certain amount of sperm. This means that pregnancy can happen even with interrupted sexual intercourse.
As is known, the urethra is a secret that is secreted when exposed to some degree of stimulation. It is worth noting that the libidinal urethra can be discharged after waking up in the morning. This is also considered the norm for men. Smegma is a secret secreted by a gland located at the head of the penis. These secretions are not found in men who carefully monitor personal hygiene. Smegma consists of oils secreted by the sebaceous glands. The secret accumulates under the skin of the glans penis. It is easily rinsed when taking a shower, and a small amount is considered the norm.
If you do not follow the rules of personal hygiene, smegma begins to stand out actively during erection. This is fertile ground for the multiplication of many pathogenic microorganisms. And such a pathogenic microflora can cause various complications in intimate life. During ejaculation, sperm is released from the urethra. After that, as a rule, the erection weakens and disappears completely. Sperm contains a large amount of sperm, which is the secret of the sex glands. The color of this secret is usually white. If there is no semen discharge during intercourse, this indicates serious problems with potency. Normally, ejaculation should occur no later than one hour after starting sexual intercourse.
pathological discharge
Sometimes too much discharge from the urethra during an erection may indicate some deviation. Some diseases are diagnosed precisely by the nature of the pathological discharge. Indeed, most often there are no other symptoms in men. For this reason, it is very important for young people to be alert to all kinds of changes.
So, discharge that goes beyond the normal range may indicate the presence of such diseases:
- Sexually transmitted diseases;
- inflammatory processes in the genitourinary system;
- urethritis;
- prostatitis;
- balanitis;
- Oncological diseases;
- Complications after penile trauma.
The secret secreted in men during erection may be very little or vice versa. In addition, the color and consistency of this secret plays an important role in pathology. As a rule, too thick or liquid discharge is considered unacceptable. In this case, the color may not be white with a greenish tint, but yellow, gray. Impurities of blood or pus may be present. If the secret is transparent, but thick and attractive, we can talk about the presence of diseases such as mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis, chlamydia.
When passing laboratory tests, in this case too many leukocytes are established. If the disease is severe, in its advanced form, pus appears in the discharge. In the presence of a disease such as chlamydia, discharge accumulates at the head of the penis and adheres to the foreskin.
Less rarely, pathological discharge during erection occurs on the background of other diseases:
- candidiasis;
- Staphylococcus aureus;
- Streptococcus;
- Escherichia coli.
At the same time, young people complain not only of pathological discharge during erection, but also of itching, burning, swelling of the tissues of the penis. An abnormal secret does not always indicate the presence of problems of the genitourinary system. Inflammation of both external and internal genital organs can occur against the background of allergies, narrowing of the urethra, chemical poisoning, mechanical action on the mucous membranes of the genital organs. As soon as a man discovers any pathology, it is important to consult a doctor in a timely manner. The specialist will prescribe the most correct method of treatment. This will help prevent possible complications.
Normal or not discharge during erection
Discharge during erection often bothers men and their sexual partners. Some men, who do not fully understand what erection means in men, are concerned about the lack of knowledge in this area. Others are concerned about the condition, as discharge may be associated with a variety of illnesses.
Physiological norm of discharge during erection
During an erection, a healthy male body produces transparent mucus - urethrorea. This colorless mucus discharge from the urethral glands is normal and acts as a lubricant to improve the passage of semen through the urethra. The amount of excretion of secretions can be extremely insufficient and quite abundant. It depends on the individual characteristics of the body's activity and the intensity of sexual activity. With prolonged abstinence, an increase in the volume of discharge is noted.
Pathological discharge during erection
Do not get carried away with honey for an erection or other types of self-medication, with the appearance of secretions that have not been observed before during erection. You need to see a doctor. It is worth paying attention to such deviations from the norm:
- discharge is accompanied by pain or discomfort;
- the amount of discharge has changed significantly up or down;
- impurities (blood, pus and others) appeared in the discharge;
- change in consistency (becomes stickier or thicker);
- the appearance of odor in the discharge.
The causes of the appearance of pathological discharge can be inflammatory processes of the urethra, infections and mechanical damage. For the diagnosis and treatment of reproductive system diseases, a man should trust a specialist. If infectious factors of the appearance of discharge during erection are detected (trichomoniasis, chlamydia, ureaplasmosis, mycoplasmosis, candidiasis, gonorrhea), a permanent sexual partner of a man is also prescribed treatment to exclude re-infection. During an erection, the discharge of a pathological nature may not differ from normal in appearance, physiologically.
Discharge from the penis during arousal is a feature of the normal functioning of the reproductive system. And their changes are a sign of a serious disease that requires treatment. Self-medication without tests and doctors can only aggravate the situation, create difficulties in the diagnosis by a specialist and in the choice of treatment in the future.

Ejaculation during erection in men
Most often, discharge during erection in men occurs in the form of a liquid (limited amount) that can be of different color and consistency. The discharge comes from the urethra or preputial gland and is normal unless its amount, color and odor suggest otherwise.
If the secretion is atypical, you should think about your state of health and contact a specialist, as this may be the first sign of a serious illness.
Secretion during erection in men showing a normal state of health
A common indicator for assessing the health of the genitourinary system is physiological discharge from the urethra:
- urethrorea - during an erection, a transparent secret is produced with a small number of germ cells;
- Smegma - produced by the sebaceous glands under the skin of the head of the penis (washed off during hygiene procedures).
Secretion of a pathological nature
The appearance of secretions, which cannot be attributed to normal and physiological, indicates the presence of inflammatory processes in the body. They can be caused by both infectious and non-infectious causes.
The main types of infectious diseases in which pathological secretion occurs are:
- chlamydia;
- candidiasis;
- gonorrhea;
- genital herpes;
- trichomoniasis;
- ureaplasmosis;
- mycoplasmosis.
Non-infectious factors can also trigger such secretions, namely:
- damage to the urethra due to mechanical stress;
- allergic reactions;
- taking drugs or other chemicals;
- narrowing of the lumen of the urethra.
Typology of discharge during erection in men
All erectile discharges in men can be different in color and transparency. Already according to these indicators, the first conclusions can be drawn about the presence of unusual processes for a healthy body, namely:
- turbid - directly indicates the presence of an impressive number of pathogenic microorganisms in the body;
- gray with thick consistency - indicates the presence of dead epithelial tissues;
- green or yellow - a direct indicator of the presence of inflammatory processes and purulent discharge (in the analyzes there will be an increased level of leukocytes);
- interspersed with blood or bloody clots.
Examination and treatment for atypical discharge during erection
If an atypical secretion is detected during erection, it is necessary to contact a specialist and undergo a comprehensive examination in order to confirm or exclude the presence of certain diseases.
The initial examination includes:
- visual inspection of the penis;
- palpation and examination of lymph nodes in the groin;
- collection of secretion from the prostate for further laboratory research.
A preliminary diagnosis can be made based on laboratory tests and initial examination data. If it turns out that these data are insufficient, the following manipulations are additionally performed:
- TANK-seeding;
- general blood analysis;
- general urine analysis;
- Ultrasound of the pelvic organs and prostate;
- tomography.
