I'm wondering if it's alright to eat a banana or any other fruit with my meal, or should I wait until after I've finished eating? Is there a recommended amount of time I should wait before having fruit following a meal?

Changes in semen consistency can be concerning.

Possible causes of watery semen:

1. Over-masturbation: Frequent masturbation can lead to watery semen due to decreased sperm concentration.
2. Dehydration: Inadequate hydration can cause semen to become watery.
3. Dietary factors: A diet lacking essential nutrients, such as zinc, selenium, or omega-3 fatty acids, can affect semen quality.
4. Hormonal imbalances: Hormonal changes, particularly low testosterone, can impact semen consistency.
5. Medical conditions: Certain medical conditions, like hypogonadism or pituitary gland problems, can cause watery semen.

Potential problems:

1. Reduced fertility: Watery semen can indicate low sperm count or poor sperm quality, making it harder to conceive.
2. Erectile dysfunction: Hormonal imbalances or underlying medical conditions can contribute to erectile dysfunction.

Overcoming this problem:

1. Reduce masturbation frequency: Try to limit masturbation to 2-3 times a week.
2. Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day.
3. Balance your diet: Ensure you're getting essential nutrients, including zinc, selenium, and omega-3 fatty acids.
4. Exercise regularly: Regular physical activity can help improve hormone balance and overall health.
5. Consult a doctor: If you're concerned about your semen consistency or fertility, consult a urologist or andrologist for personalized advice.

Remember, it's essential to address any underlying medical conditions or hormonal imbalances to ensure optimal reproductive health.
