clumps or lumps in sperm

I like the feeling of ejaculating lumpy sperm. i have sex all the time so it cant be from settling. I am a semi pro athlete so am very healthy. Doc told me it is a sign of healthy sperm so relax it hasnt affected my sex life in the slightest :-P

I have had this problem a few times in my life and I have noticed a consistent set of circumstances that cause it for me. If I am dehydrated, I tend to see these clumps. If I haven't had an ejaculation in a week or two, I tend to see these clumps. I had them really bad once and I basically wound up masturbating every day to try to clear them out. Plus, I drank a lot of water each day. I haven't seen clumps since then. Make sure you get enough water and don't let the stuff build up in your testicles too long.

Alright I've been experiencing the clumps (not discolorment) off and on for almost a year now. My question is how many of us are regular pot smokers?? My girlfriend said guys who smoke weed always have thicker sperm that tastes bitter. I'm thinking extremely excessive use causes the clumps? Because mine definately have nothing to do with sperm sitting in my body for too long because it seems to happen more the more often I cum. Like the 3rd or 4th time in the day I get off. Then once it happens it seems to continue for a few days.. so my question is how many of us smoke a lot of pot, and are dating nymphos who want it many times a day? As for the 14 yr old... your playin with it too much bro. ***this post is edited by moderator *** *** private e-mails not allowed **

please we need help of doctor,
i see gelly lumps in my semen sinc about 5 years nd i have 30, im fear about this

yp pretty sure its the stroids. I have a friend who would take steroids and it made everything yellow...theywhite of his eyes, his snot, even his skin was tinted yellow. His friends didnt have this much of a reaction but a lot mentioned that their sperm was yellow.

Anything that acts like a ssri/antidepressant does this to me, as soon as the medicine is stopped the condition goes away. 

I am so glad this topic has been recently bumped. I don't think it's radiation or steroids since I hardly carry my cell phone with me and I don't take any steroids (that I know of). Here's something new, I've experienced this first in my mucus. Only one person in this thread mentioned mucus and he named it as a possible cause. However I discovered these little gelatin-like things in my mucus first and only today did I see them in my sperm. So maybe there's a connection there. I don't believe we've delved into diets (at least not to the fullest). I admit that my diet consists of mostly frozen dinners, canned pasta and snack foods. How about some of the rest of you, do you have a bad diet too?

I wanted to chime in here and add to the conversation.

 

I've had the same problem for years now, maybe 6-7 years. I'm currently 25. My diet is pretty normal... heat home-cooked food and it's pretty balanced, although I do splurge on sweets a lot.

The clumps aren't that BIG of an issue, except that it does get weird when I'm with a girl and they comment on it afterwards (they worry sometimes, too! haha). The main issue for me, though, is that the clumps occasionally clog up the entire ejaculation process for me sometimes. As in, there are times where I can actually FEEL a clump blocking the way during ejaculation, which causes little to no semen to come out. It doesn't necessarily HURT, but it definitely screws with me and my buddy down there. :/

Something interesting that was mentioned before... two things actually.

 

1. Dehydration: Although this may not seem like a big issue, I think I am dehydrated quite often. I always have dry mouth, and I don't drink enough liquids at all. I have "experimented" before by drinking lots and lots of liquids in a day, but the only result is more *volume* of semen, NOT a deduction of the clumps.

 

2. Claritin D: Interestingly enough, I have taken Claritin for a good portion of my adult life, at least 5-6 years, maybe much longer. There are periods in the year that I take them every day. Interesting that someone else mentioned that, too. Hmm...

 

I'm going to try to 1. eat healthier and add some salt (as mentioned before) to my diet, and I will also try to cut back on Claritin, and to drink more water over summer. Let's see what happens..I'll keep you all posted.

Well guys, this may just be a coincidence. I started having the "gelitin" @ 8 months ago. Since I drive truck, I have to get a physical every two years. I was shocked to learn the other day during my physical that I had sugar in my urine. Diabetes type 2. Get your sugar checked just to be sure. The only symptom I had,looking back, was always thirsty. I never suspected any health issues. Somehow the blood cells start stealing water from other sources and it dehydrates you.

I immediately though of this thread and came back to post.

Like I said...could just be coincidence.  My DOT physical, which always seemed like a pain in the arse, turned out to be a life saver.

Get your sugar levels checked regardless of this problem. You never know.

I recently noticed small clumps in my sperm and i personally believe its too much masterbation causing the problem

personally have many friends with problem that seen doctors and they dontt know probably the government sterilizing us

At about age 35 I started noticing those little lumps, kind of like beads; even had a hole in the middle! I had been celibate fora couple of years (yes, years) but began chasing women again. I hadn't even been masturbating very much before. I attributed it to that, lack of activity. A new girl friend freaked out, wanting to know what those little white things were. After a month or so they went away and have never returned. It was a weird thing but, I think, they are harmless. Evidently even the doctors are at a loss to explain it.

Ive had this off and on for the past 10 years now. Sometimes the clumps and sometimes the discoloration or both. It only happens to me a couple of times a year IF that. I notice it only happens when I havent ejaculated (in ANY way, neither sex nor suzy palm) for 5 days or more. I am 38 years old now so its been happening since I was about 28 or so. I was never really worried about it since things always returned to normal after I'd get back into the swing of things. Today was the first time in a long while that I got the clumps so out of curiosity I entered "clumped sperm" into the browser and sites like this came up.

Also, i forgot to mention, I think its due to the sperm setting in the testicles for that long period of time. It just clumps up and gets discolored naturally from sitting there inactive for so long. Also, Im sure the body has a way of getting rid of "old sperm." Maybe these clumps and discoloration are the sperm that was about to be re-absorbed into the body so the testicles can make new sperm? Who knows. These are just my musings and opinions so anyone feel free to chime in if you know something for sure.

this is exactly what i think when it happens too me, it happens too me every so often as well and im 20 no im not a virgin haha me and my girlfriend are expecting a baby girl in 2 months so its not exactly happening for us and i respect that :) anyways i just thought all the white big clumpy pieces that come out are old dried up sperm sort of thing, kinda like old dried up dead skin it falls off, if we didnt see that all the time n then our skin all of a sudden fell of wed be like oh sh*t my skins falling off haha its kinda similar id say :)

from personal experiences I belive dehydration, at least for my part, made the clumps because I had been out in thd cold for some hours and when I got back in I didn't drink anything and then I got the clumps, when I started drinking normally again it disapeared and went back to normal

I also had this problem about 35 years ago, now. It was really worisoime to me, but I never went to a doctor. I attributed it to my lowered libido. I went through a phase of no sex for a long period. Not even masturbating. To me it seemed like the seminal fluids were drying out, in the vas deferens, and coming out finally as lumps. It was really embarrassing when i finally found a girl friend and she asked me what those white lumps were! I had no answer. They soon went away, making me feel quite sure it was just from a lack of regular ejaculation. I haven't seen any better answers, here or anywhere else. I had a vasectomy 5 or 6 years later, so it wasn't from that. Now I am taking testosterone injections and my testicles have shrunk, plus I'm dealing with ED, so ANY kind of ejaculation is ok with me, lumps or not. I have heard it said, "Use it or lose it". Try to find a wife who loves sex, and hope for the best. I did, but it hasn't helped too much.
