Retrograde ejaculation - low semen volume
Hey guys.
Not too great topic to talk about. Anyway I did semen analysis test 2 weeks ago and aside from low sperm count (at least they are there) my semen volume was borderline low 1.5ml which is the minimum and I did have 3 day absence. If I have sex every day, my volume is pathetic, like 1ml or less.
Drank 5l of water yesterday to see if it is dehydration, seems like it isn't. Also, I started taking tons of suplements Arginine, Zync, Vit C, D, folic acid, B12... Nothing is helping.
I think I have retrograde ejaculation since I started noticing foamy urine around 8 months ago and I thought it was proteniuria but seems like it wasn't that and my urine is quite frothy after sex/masturbation.
Causes of retrograde ejaculation are MS (how can that be the only symptoms I have no idea), diabetes which I don't have, prostate bladder surgery which I didn't have and that is pretty much it. This only leaves MS, but I mean, I would have some other symptoms I suppose before I damaged my nerves that I have this retrograde ejaculation.
Has anyone experienced similar thing?

Re: Retrograde ejaculation - low semen volume
Hi. I have this because of medication so I do know a little of what you are going through. The foamy part is not, as far as i can tell, indicative of retrograde ejaculation. I have been seeing a urologist for 2 years now on and off. I have frothy urine and never have protein in my urine and the urologist isnt bothered. The tell tale sign of retrograde ejaculation is when you can actually see it in the urine. It looks cloudy and can sometimes be clumpy with it. Its pretty obvious. My foamy pee is usually completely clear, my retrograde ejaculation pee is cloudy - very cloudy. Only way to find out is follow it up with a urologist or other specialist. Most of my problems are, so the urologist says, prostate related and I am 41 years old.

Thank you. It is then probably not retrograde in my case as I only have a trace of something, probably leftover sperm from urethra. Otherwise, urine is pretty clear if I pee in the cup. Tmi
