When a man experiences sensual arousal, a transparent discharge appears at the head of the genital organ. They also happen in the morning, after a long sleep. The volume of mucus is different for everyone and depends on the degree of stimulation.

In the process of increasing the pressure in the abdomen, which occurs when it is tense, colorless mucus is found on the penis. It is odorless, but sometimes there are gray veins in it. Its consistency is thick due to the seminal elements and the secretion of the prostate. Sometimes such colorless secretions appear during severe coughing fits.
Thanks to the work of the sebaceous glands, sebum is secreted in the male body. It consists of a secretion produced by the sebaceous glands of the foreskin of the penis and its head. If hygiene rules are not followed, germs multiply there, as indicated by an unpleasant smell.
The male secretion released after sex is called semen. It contains a large volume of semen and is considered the natural end of sexual intercourse. In teenagers, such a discharge occurs during night emissions, which is a normal state of the body.
Signs of serious illness
