What Causes Bad Odour To Semen?

For last year or two my semen has a fishy smell. It s not noticeable right away. Usually after couple hours or the next day. It is very strong at times. My ex just sent me a msg saying I need to see a Dr but won t tell me what she thinks it is. What could be causing this? Should u be worried?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and welcome.

We cannot confirm a diagnosis without an examination and so the first thing I have to advise is a urine culture and sensitivity examination and a urine analysis. Once the reports come we can more accurately and rapidly treat you.

But in the meantime, avoid sexual activity in all forms and drink plenty of fluids. The current possibilities include a bacterial infection you may have picked up from having sexual intercourse with a female partner who had the infection, the conditions include bacterial vaginitis or trichomoniasis.

Best wishes.
