When you ejaculate how much sperm comes out?
Men’s Health Blogs When you ejaculate how much sperm comes out? In this video and post, the question we are going to answer is, when you ejaculate, how many sperms are actually released? More specifically when you ejaculate how much sperm come out? Now many people have a common doubt that when ejaculation happens, are the sperms being properly deposited in the vagina? Understanding the intricacies of this process is crucial, especially for those curious about sperm deposit and conception probabilities. So, let’s delve into the science behind ejaculation and its implications for fertility. How many sperms are going to be deposited in the vagina? To understand this, you must understand the physiology of ejaculation. So when ejaculation happens, the important point to know here is that the first few drops of semen contains the sperm rich fraction. That means the first one or two drops of the semen contain most of the spermatozoa, representing a significant proportion. So that means ejaculation should happen in the vagina strictly and you cannot partially ejaculate outside and then have a partial ejaculation inside. Furthermore, following penetration of your partner or loved one, it’s essential to ensure that you withdraw the organ only after complete ejaculation has occurred Why?? Because during the process of ejaculation, when you have an orgasm, the first one or two drops of the semen contains the sperm rich fraction, SRF. Termed SRF, the sperm-rich fraction essentially indicates that those drops contain the highest number of spermatozoa. And it’s very interesting because when patients collect a sample in a sperm testing laboratory, normally when we see a report, if we notice low semen volume, if we notice a low count,we ask the patient, did the patient spill the first 2-3 drops of the semen on the floor at the time of collecting the sample? As a result, if the answer to the question is yes, we conclude that the report indicates a low semen volume. Given that a significant portion of motile sperm is lost in the spilled drops of semen, the low sperm count report could be inaccurate.. Thus, what’s important to understand here is that the first couple of drops of the semen contains the highest fraction of motile spermatozoa.

Book a Call Book a Call Some patients also have the question that after I withdraw the organ, I see the semen back flowing. So, when you ejaculate how much sperm comes out? That’s completely fine. Remember when you ejaculate intra-vaginally, as early as 2-3 minutes after ejaculation, the spermatozoa are going to rapidly swim up and reach the Fallopian tube. What happens after about 10 minutes of ejaculation is that basically the semen is going to liquefy. The liquefaction time is where the coagulated thick semen becomes watery and it becomes thin and watery. So because it becomes liquefied, that is because it loses its viscosity or it becomes liquefied by nature, what’s going to happen? It will flow back down the vaginal canal, and this back flow of semen is termed “effluem-seminis.” That is a physiological process, 99-100% of couples will note that after ejaculation, in 5-7 minutes, semen back flows. The Crucial Initial Phase (Where semen = Gold). When you ejaculate how much sperm comes out? However, the pivotal factor remains the initial phase of ejaculation—specifically, during orgasm. Proper deposition of the first portion of ejaculate into the vagina significantly heightens the chances of pregnancy. The rapid expulsion of the initial 2-3 drops during a man’s orgasm holds particular importance. The depositing these drops in the vagina significantly increases the likelihood of pregnancy.

So I hope you found this video useful and informative and please like, comment and subscribe. Here is one more bonus point here for you is that when you ejaculate, how many sperms actually comes out? That’s not the right question because in fundamental you need to know what is your sperm concentration per ml. The normal sperm concentration per ml can range anywhere from 13 million per ml to 16 million per ml. I hope this answers the question with some clarity.

Dhatus means ‘the bodily fluids’ Consequently, Dhat syndrome refers to a clinical condition were men complaint of ‘feeling low. feeling weak. Feeling tired along a sense of nervousness, rest tremor in hands and generally feeling depressed’. Moreover, men with Dhat syndrome feel impotent along with a general loss of fertility too. However, the most important reason for these symptoms as stated by patients is due to ‘semen loss’. This loss of semen can happen during sleep (called nightfalls) which is not under the control of patients. Moreover, the loss of semen can be voluntary which is via masturbation. Either-way, men with Dhat syndrome, feel very tired weak and also report erectile dysfunction. Interestingly, Among all the bodily fluids, semen seems to have been considered to be the most important of body fluids as per the vedic/ayurvedic scriptures.

So, for sure this condition is actually specific to certain cultures, making it a cultural condition. Their seems to be only about 45 to 50 published studies in this condition called Dhat Syndrome Which age is Dhat Syndrome common?

An estimated 40% of men would experience Dhat syndrome at-least once in their lifetimes. To highlight, the symptoms commonly seen are A generalized sense of tiredness and a lack of motivation Rest tremors combined with anxiety Furthermore, these men also go into full fledged clinical depression & they feel life is not worth living Lastly severe erectile dysfunction is also seen Much of these symptoms are blamed because of semen loss (the loss the bodies most vital fluid) Why does Dhat Syndrome develop in the first place? Truth be told, we really do not know. We also do not know as to why it specifically develops among specific cultures. What we do know however is that, a lack of sex education and culturally propagated orthodox belief systems can lead to the development of this condition. Another point to know is that, this sexual weakness due to Dhat syndrome has been listed as an ICD10 disease condition and also in the DSM4 manual which is prominently used by Psychiatrists. However, most medical professionals are unaware that such a condition even exists as such. Patients are at the receiving end, eventually and never get treated or evaluated rightly. Now, lets move on to the last part of the post Subscribe to our Newsletter How how to treat sexual weakness? or Dhat? Once the patient has been diagnosed with this type of sexual weakness, treatment strategies include the use of Anti-anxiety medications Anti-depressant use Next psycho-sexual counseling and/or cognitive behavioral therapy Lastly medications have to prescribed to improve overall erection and sexual performance A combination of treatments usually work wonders to improve the patients symptoms quite quickly. In the absence of treatments, patients eventually suffer unduly post marriage.

What to do if you cant ejaculate? Delayed ejaculation & its treatment explained
Men’s Health Blogs What to do if you cant ejaculate? Delayed ejaculation & its treatment explained In this post, we are going to go through quickly about ‘what to do if you cant ejaculate’. More specifically, we will briefly look at delayed ejaculation and delayed ejaculation treatment. You can also watch the video below In this post, we are going to go through quickly about ‘what to do if you cant ejaculate’. More specifically, we will briefly look at delayed ejaculation and delayed ejaculation treatment. You can also watch the video below The last thing any man or (his better half) wants to experience in their sex lives, is ‘the inability to cum’. Its frustating, unfulfilling and bloody irritating. So, what to do if you cant ejaculate? Lets first science the shit out of the topic. Now, delayed ejaculation (DE) is also called inhibited ejaculation. In this condition, men are unable to ejaculate after penetration of the vagina, in partnered sex. The important point to note here is the ‘average ejaculatory latency time’ which is about 4 to 10 mins. Interestingly this 4 to 10 minute time is also the ‘average duration of sex’ in most couples. So, technically, how long should sex last? about 4 to 10 mins post penetration. However, in delayed ejaculation, the sex lasts really long. Men who fail to ejaculate, keep thrusting their partners from anywhere between 30 to 60 minutes, but do not ejaculate. Thus these men in principle do not achieve their orgasm. This causes tremendous sexual frustration, depression and distress to the male. But, when it comes to the female partner, the distress and stress results from the consequent infertility issues. Since men with delayed ejaculation suffer due to the inability to deposit sperm in the vagina, infertility results, thereby affecting the relationships. Not just that, female partners of men who cant ejaculate also suffer from poor self esteem issues, disturbed body image problems and a range of other psychological problems. They think that, they are probably not ‘attractive’ and thereby their unable to make their partner come. Dr. Shah Dupesh Consultant Andrologist & Sexologist Ready to improve your Reproductive Health? Discuss your concerns in a private setting and get personalized guidance tailored to your needs. Book a Call Book a Call So what should you do if you cannot ejaculate? Keep Reading! The problem of delayed ejaculation is seen in about 4 to 8% of men presenting to male fertility clinic with sexual health issues. Now, here comes the icing on the cake. A large proportion of men with DE, seem to suffer from DE due masturbatory behavior. Men who engage in masturbation are frequently ‘auto-sexual’ or more specifically auto-sexually oriented. Can masturbation cause delayed ejaculation? Hell yeah it can. For these men, unfortunately, are compelled to take their hand and stimulate their organ. The thrusting force generated from their hand actually offers much greater gratification than the ‘vagina’s’ (of their partners) Moreover, men with delayed ejaculation also suffer from an idiosyncratic masturbation style called as ‘prone masturbation‘. Individual’s who engage in prone masturbatory practice frequently orgasm or achieve ejaculation by rubbing their organ on the bed or on the floor. The rubbing of course helps the individual get a tremendous high triggering an ejaculatory response. Other yet equally important causes of DE include 1. Major pelvic and abdominal surgeries 2. High Prolactin 3. Low Testosterone 4. Genito-urinary tract infections (from stds like chlamydia and gonorrhea et cetera)* 5. Mullerian cysts and prostatic utricles *Whats interesting to note here is that, specifically with STD’s the patient will have burning sensation while ejaculation. Thus, the pain will eventually inhibit the ejaculation completely Subscribe to our Newsletter What can you do immediately if you cant ejaculate? The best thing you can do for yourself is to visit a sexologist near you A thorough psychological and psycho-sexual evaluation is a definite must. Most importantly, a point of interest would be to get the individual evaluated on their sexual orientation. Many men suffer from conflicts regarding their sexual orientations. In men with DE, the said patient may be in a heterosexual relationship but would rather prefer to be homosexual. This conflict in the psyche can in itself cause and inhibition of the ejaculation (or ejaculatory response). Next, a thorough evaluation of the male sex hormones is also definitely required. Ultimately, treatment depends on the cause. If the issues are psychological. Treatment options include 1. Cognitive behavioral therapy or 2. REBT therapy combined with psychosexual therapy If the issues are organic (a bodily physiological problem) Hormonal therapy can be done. For example for men with elevated prolactin, medications to reduce prolactin can be given. Similarly for men with hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism (where no sperm in the semen is seen) hormonal injections with testosterone replacement therapy is recommended. Fundamentally the END-GOAL is to help the patient achieve a normal antegrade ejaculation. Some medications which we have used in our practice include medications like 1. Tab Cabergoline 0.5 mg twice a week for 8 weeks 2. Midrodine Hydrochloride and Ephredine. So, that about summates the post on ‘what to do if you cant ejaculate’.

Does Penis Stretching Work? The Truth about ‘Jelqing’
Men’s Health Blogs Does Penis Stretching Work? The Truth about ‘Jelqing’ So, you are going to love this post. Its about ‘the penis stretching exercises’. Does penis stretching work? How effective is ‘jelqing’. Can it make your organ BIG?. Watch the video below Now, the truth is a large number of men have serious problems with the size of their organ. An estimated 45% to 55% of men believe their organ is small (teenie weenieee) in terms of size. Full thanks and salutations to the porn industry, since, men tend to compare their organ sizes with porn stars while watching them do it. Moreover, they a develop a strange complex called as the ‘small penis syndrome’. Furthermore, these men compare the size of their organ with other men, while sharing common spaces in showers and toilets. I mean it really get to the head of these guys. They lose hope, they get depressed and feel their lives are over, fundamentally based on their penis size. They develop whats called as small penis syndrome. Moreover, men with this condition strongly believe and feel that they cannot satisfy their partners in bed. They believe and eventually end up with erectile dysfunction. Consequently, they avoid intimate relationships, and resort to masturbation where the element of judgement from another partner is fundamentally absent. Dr. Shah Dupesh Consultant Andrologist & Sexologist Ready to improve your Reproductive Health? Discuss your concerns in a private setting and get personalized guidance tailored to your needs. Book a Call Book a Call But the TRUTH of the matter is, their organ sizes are actually NORMAL Now, lets discuss a bit about penis size….since this is were most men have a problem. The mean average penis size ranges from about 5 to 5.5 inches when erect. But most men do not know to measure their organ. They end up comparing their size with what they see in the pro, leading to distress, anxiety, depression and a whole host of other issues. So, say you truly have a small size, does penis stretching work? Or does penis lengthening work? We hear all this humbug on these penis lengthening exercise, penis massage blah blah. However, these exercises will not increase the size of your equipment. Sorry to disappoint you. Penis stretching or Jelqing involves rubbing the organ back and forth using lubricants. This pseudoscience claims that repeated penis massage and stretches ends up causing micro tears in the deep tissue of the penis. Moreover, after the minor injuries heal, the scar tissue formed will make the organ feel and appear thicker. But, most people forget to notice that, the penile tissues are not just made of muscles. The penile tissue is made full of ‘neurovasculature’ that is, the organ is filled with blood vessels and nerves. Furthermore, it has 3 erectile tissues inside, the corpora cavernosa and the corpora spongiosum, so, stretching this organ will cause permanent long term damage. Not just, that, their are case reports and studies that suggest that, in men who engage in jelqing or penis stretching organ damage occurs. I have personally seen patients who engage in jelqing & eventually ending up with erectile dysfunction. The last thing you want to do to yourself is self-harm by doing these things. Remember, their are about a 100 factors based on which a women will judge you. And organ size is NOT IMPORTANT. So, please do not worry about your penis size. Visit an andrologist or sexologist near you to get a correct estimate of your organ. Subscribe to our Newsletter This is because a self-estiamtion of your size, by looking at your organ from top-down will make your organ look much smaller than it actually is. In all probability, your organ size is most probably normal. As a bonus point please never use ‘penile extenders’ for stretching your organ. It will cause permanent erection problems, by either incorrect usage or by penis stretching. Penis size can be increased by other methods, like utilizing whats called as a ‘Jess extender’ OR similar devices. But, stretching techniques or stretching devices or other surgical interventions do not work. So, remember 3 things 1. Estimate your size correctly 2. Penis stretching is not required 3. Visit an andrologist for the right treatment with respect to stretching I hope you liked this short post on ‘does penis stretching work’.

Male Fertility Tips To Get Pregnant Fast – 5 Quick Actionable strategies to implement
Men’s Health Blogs Male Fertility Tips To Get Pregnant Fast 5 Quick Actionable strategies to implement Hey guys! you are going to find this post both fun to read & easy as a pie to follow. Let get to the crux of the topic without wasting time. So, we are going to quickly discuss on male fertility tips to get pregnant fast (I mean super fast from a biological perspective). Watch the short below. It wont take a more than a minute of your time. Okay, you must be a newly wed or you are in a long term relationship with your girlfriend or whatever. You are ready to take that next big step to have a baby? [most people do not understand that they are screwing themselves over when they decide on having a child :-)]. However, since you are dead serious on this goal, you must be married for a year or two. Since social pressure from your relatives (specifically the damn in-laws) builds up rampantly. During this time, sexual intercourse which was once heavenly becomes a chore. In principal, sex happens just to have a child. You start tracking your partners ovulation days, her fertile window and plan intercourse. But still a pregnancy simply just does not seem to happen. Am I right? (I know I am). Both you and your partner are damn frustrated. It gets frustrating, trust me!. So, then what are the male fertility tips to get pregnant fast? The answer lies below in 5 quick actionable strategies to get your partner pregnant. FAST Dr. Shah Dupesh Consultant Andrologist & Sexologist Ready to improve your Reproductive Health? Discuss your concerns in a private setting and get personalized guidance tailored to your needs. Book a Call Book a Call Male fertility tips to get pregnant fast – 5 actionable strategies you should implement right now Tip 1 : Having frequent sex Regular sex can help. But do not at any cost make it mechanical. If sexual intercourse happens with all the planning around your partners fertile window, you are not going to get her pregnant. How much sex to get pregnant then? Remember its roughly 3 times per week. Studies suggest that when sexual intercourse happens at the rate of 3 times per week, their is roughly a 60 to 70 percent chances of getting your partner pregnant in the next 8 months. Yup that is roughly 8 months. When the frequency of intercourse falls to less than 3 per week, consequently the chances of pregnancy also drop. On average, the chance of getting your partner pregnant is roughly varies from 4% to 6% per month, when you have sex 3 times per week. So have fun, while you are at it. Making babies, no big deal as such. Tip 2 : Take the famed ABC Juice ABC juice (Expanded as Apple, carrot and beetroot juice) is an excellent natural anti-oxidant. Remember to take lots of it. Take the ABC juice everyday. Regular intake of ABC juice helps improve sperm motility fast, increase sperm concentration and also boosts overall male fertility. One of the best home remedies to improve male fertility is taking a combination of ABC juice, lemon juice and orange juice. I would recommend taking each of these juices on an alternative day to boost male fertility. This is probably on of the best male fertility tips to get pregnant fast. Tip 3: Improve your erection Now, you are going to find this tip interesting. The tip is a double treat, both for you and your partner. Remember having a good erection, is paramount to satisfactory sexual intercourse. You cant argue with that right? However, the better and harder your penis. The larger the amount of semen deposited in the vagina. Now to put in simple words. More semen = more sperm (i.e the total number of sperm deposited per ejaculate is higher). So you definitely need to treat erectile dysfunction if you have it and also improve your existing hardness of your organ. Trust me, its worth it. A simple way to improve erection is by going for a walk and hitting 10,000 steps per day. Try to use a pedometer and keep track of your steps. Or hit a daily target of 6 km/day while walking. Subscribe to our Newsletter Tip 4: Restful sleep and avoid night-shift jobs Its not worth working nights. Simple as that. We are not biologically designed to function with full potential in the nights. Quit your night shift work. In my experience as an andrologist and sexologist, I have seen a large number of patients suffer from numerous fertility & sex related problems due to night work only. Patients working in nights frequently suffer from low sperm concentration, low sperm motility and also decreased erectile dysfunction. They also have low sex interest and feel fatigued all the time. So please quit working at nights and ensure you get 6 to 8 hours of restful sleep. Trust me, it will make all the difference. Tip 5: Quit Smoking & Alcohol Lastly, definitely quit smoking and alcohol. Its just not going to help you, since it kills your sperm and it also kills your erectile functions. To conclude, in order to improve your overall male fertility, following simple lifestyle changes is all that is required. Take it easy and relax. Do not worry. Keep trying and you will achieve your goals of fatherhood. I will see you soon with another blog post References Begot I, Peixoto TC, Gonzaga LR, Bolzan DW, Papa V, Carvalho AC, Arena R, Gomes WJ, Guizilini S.

Men’s Health Blogs Lump in my balls? Quick Pointer’s on lump in testicles Have you ever wondered with the question ‘lump in my balls’? Could it be some freaking cancer. Am i done for? What should I do about these lumps in testicles? In short blog post we will go through some very concise facts on ‘testicular lumps’. You can watch the whiteboard video below (if you feel lazy to read) On to the good stuff then!. So when you notice a ‘lump in the testicle’ what matters most is the position of the lump. Position, position and position. It matters that much. The fist question to ask is ‘Where is the lump in my balls located?’ Is it on the skin? Is it deep inside my balls (in the tissue that is). Exactly where? The next question to ask is…. ‘How many lumps in my balls are their?’ Is their a single lump? Are their multiple lumps? Is it on 1 testicle or is it on both testicles? So a preliminary diagnosis can definitely be done, by answering these questions. If you notice lumps in the skin as depicted in the image below, please remember that these lumps are nothing but ‘Sebaceous cysts’.

In these instances, a surgical excision (removal of the cyst) can be done. The second most common type of lump, men have is called ‘The worm lump’ or more specifically, these lumps have a ‘bag of worms’ like feel. These lumps are called ‘Varicoceles’. Check the image below. Here again, the varicocele is nothing but a dilatation of the blood vessels specifically the veins (that run over the spermatic cord). These varicoceles do not require any treatment.

A block (due to sexually transmitted infections) or 3. Due to an Epydidimal infection The image below depicts a lump in the Epydidimis. All big size epydidimal lumps with pain definitely need an ultrasound imaging. A semen analysis test is recommended in case the lump is present on both sides.

I know As one would expect, the testicular lumps definitely need intervention (no running away) When a patient presents to the clinic, with a testicular lump inside the sac, we recommend a scan.
