Brief Answer:
few possible causes

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
First, it may mean nothing, especially in your age and if you do sport.
Second, if there is some associated symptoms such as excessive urination or sweating then it may indicate certain disorders. In first place, related to your kidneys or hormonal values (insuline, ADH or cortisol). I dont see emergency but you shoud see nephrologist and endocriologist if this persist. you need to check blood sugar, urine analysis and hormone values. Till that ,try not to drink more than 2.5 liters of fluids per days unless you do sport. Wish you good health. Regards

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Yellowish semen isnt indicating any disease if there is no pain or fever or lumps in genital area.
Rectum itch may be caused by hemorrhoids,fissures or abscess. you need to see proctologist for further evaluation.
