Hi,
Usually, semen should liquify within 20 minutes of ejaculation.
If it doesn't then the time is prolonged. Similarly, if it is more viscous the sperm can't move freely to fertilize the egg.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. B. Radhakrishnan. Nair, OBGYN
