Brief Answer: It could be normal variations. Detailed Answer: Hello Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have few doubts about quantity and consistency of semen and ejaculation, I shall be happy if you can post me few more details to help me in making comments on your problem 1) Are you married ? and having relationship with only one partner? 2)Do you spend enough time in fore play? 3) How long you take to ejaculate after penetration of vagina? 4) Do you have any psychological issues with your partner? 5) Do you masturbate frequently? 6) Do you have normal sexual desire ? The delayed ejaculation is mainly due to psychological factor and mind related and in some cases it is related to serum testosterone levels in the blood.Please check your testosterone levels. Normally man ejaculates 2-4 ml of semen in 24 hours ,If you have more than one sexual encounter in a day naturally the quantity of semen is bound to be less in subsequent ejaculation compared to first ejaculation. The consistency of semen depends upon the water intake If you you consume less water your semen tends to be thicker than normal. I do not think that you have any sexual disorder it is mostly due to anxiety.Following measure will help you to boost up your confidence and getting good erection.and have enjoyable sexual life. 1) Practice regular exercise for 45 minutes followed by meditation for 1/2 an hour in the morning. 2) Take high protein diet rich in vegetables and fruits and Vitamin A,C,D,E.and Zinc 3)Take anti oxidants like Almonds 5-6 everyday.. 4) Avoid alcohol and smoking.. Hope I have answered your query. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask me I shall be happy to help you . Thanks and Regards. Dr.Patil.
