Semen volume is one of the key parameters measured during fertility evaluation. A normal ejaculate contains sperm cells along with fluids produced by the seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and other accessory glands.
These fluids provide nutrients, enzymes, and protective substances that help sperm survive and travel through the female reproductive tract.
Low semen volume can indicate underlying problems with reproductive glands or blockages in the reproductive tract. One condition associated with low semen volume is Hypospermia.
Men with this condition produce less semen than normal during ejaculation, which may reduce the chances of successful fertilization.
Diagnosis usually involves semen analysis and additional medical examinations to determine the underlying erotic cause.
