My husband refuses to get his semen tested. He says the fact that it is thick and voluminous means it must be normal?
Semen consists mainly of seminal fluid, secreted by the seminal vesicles and the prostate. The volume and consistency of the semen is not related to its fertility potential, which depends upon the sperm count. This can only be assessed by microscopic examination. Q. Local side effects (OHSS-Multiple Birth) Common local side effects experienced by patients who receive gonadotrophins by intramuscular injection include skin redness, swelling and bruising. Pain and discomfort sometimes reported after intramuscular injections are now likely to be lessened with the availability of gonadotrophins produced by recombinant DNA – or genetic engineering – techniques which are administered by subcutaneous injection.
