Is healthy sperm thick or runny?
Semen is the whitish-grey liquid that comes out of your penis when you orgasm. Semen contains sperm, as well as fluids that help send sperm toward the back of the vagina, and proteins, vitamins, and minerals that nourish it. Healthy semen is thick and sticky. Runny or watery semen might suggest a low sperm count, which can cause male infertility.
