It's a condition when semen in males enters the bladder instead of popping out through the penis during orgasm.
Although one still reaches the peak of the sexual apex (orgasm) peak, ejaculation might occur with very little or no semen, which is called a Dry Orgasm.
Scientifically, urine and ejaculation both pass through the urethra in males. There's a muscle near the neck of the bladder that holds urine until you're ready to urinate. During the orgasm, that same muscle shrinks (contracts) to keep ejaculate from entering the bladder, which allows it to flow through the urethra and the tip of your penis.
But in Retrograde Ejaculation, this muscle fails to shrink. Because it stays relaxed and the ejaculate ends up entering the bladder only. Retrograde ejaculation is actually not harmful, but it can result in male infertility. It doesn't mean that your sperm aren't reachable; rather, infertility occurs because the sperm could not make it to the partner.
The main and the most prominent trait of Retrograde Ejaculation is very little or no semen when you have an orgasm because the semen finds its way into your bladder in lieu of the urethra.
Semen, when mixed with urine in the bladder, a little cloudy-like texture is visible when you pass urine after sex or masturbation; being unsuccessful in conceiving a child is another sign one should rule out retrograde ejaculation as the cause of male infertility.
Retrograde ejaculation requires treatment only if you're attempting to become a parent. When you feel uncomfortable things while orgasming, you might need to have a word with your healthcare professional.
However, you can still reach your doctor to be sure about your condition that might actually need attention.
When the bladder neck muscle doesn't tighten properly, sperm enters the bladder instead of being ejected out of the body through the penis. Retrograde ejaculation results from a physical problem, and for anything that affects the reflex of the muscle at the opening of the bladder, retrograde ejaculation is the cause.
Retrograde ejaculation is a potential side effect of a few strong medications to treat:
A dry orgasm is the primary sign of retrograde ejaculation, which is caused by other conditions, also including:
Retrograde ejaculation can go away with treatment and medications to treat it.
In order to diagnose the symptoms, the doctor will ask a couple of questions and will do a physical examination. The doctor may also ask for:
If the volume of semen in at least two samples proved low, one might have Retrograde Ejaculation.
It will be taken a right after your orgasm. Laboratory tests will find fructose and the number of sperm in the urine.
Examination of penis, testicles, and rectum.
The doctor will ask about any health problems, any recent or past surgeries or cancers, and medicinal cycles.
If dry orgasm is suspected to be other than Retrograde Ejaculation, further tests or a referral to a specialist might be needed to find the root cause.
As Retrograde Ejaculation can affect a man's experience of pleasurable sex, men may decide to treat the condition even if it has no significant underlying cause.
In such circumstances, treatment commences with removing the sperm after ejaculation, which involves isolating sperm from the bladder. One doesn't need treatment if you don't want to have children. In other words, it doesn't require treatment unless it interferes with male fertility or the quality of intercourse.
If one undergoes a treatment, a few medications will assist in closing the sphincter tightly.
It is important for diabetic patient to keep their blood sugar levels steady.
Once the doctor has successfully collected the semen from urine, a man can get his partner pregnant in one of two ways:
In vitro fertilization (IVF) which involves removing an egg from the woman and then fertilizing it in a petri dish.
The doctor injects semen directly into a woman's uterus while she ovulates.
Consumption of medicines puts you at a higher risk of retrograde ejaculation.
If one undergoes surgery such as prostate or bladder surgery, cross-check with your doctor.
If one plans to conceive in the coming future, consult the doctor about options for preserving semen before undergoing the surgery listed above.
