Thick semen can sometimes indicate dehydration or a temporary change in consistency, but it doesn't necessarily affect fertility. If you're trying to conceive, it's important to focus on overall health, including hydration, diet, and timing. If you have concerns, I would recommend discussing it with a healthcare provider who can evaluate your specific situation.

Question

I've noticed this strange dark discoloration on the head of my penis, and it seems to get more noticeable after I take a shower. Oddly though, whenever I masturbate, it doesn't really appear there anymore. It doesnt hurt or cause any irritation at all. Could this be related to an STD?

Question

I've noticed that the skin on the tip of my penis has turned red, and it hurts whenever the skin moves around. I tried using Ring Guard and some parts seemed to heal a bit, but it's not fully clearing up. Do you have any recommendations for medicine that might help with this?

Question

I've recently started having sex without using a condom, and I've noticed that my frenulum is bleeding. Is this something that's common, or should I be concerned?
