Semen-type substance leaking from anus - Real qn.

Hi, my friend recently mentioned that she's had a whitish yellowy fluid leaking out of her rectum when she uses the bathroom. She showed us on a wad of toilet tissue, and indeed it looks a lot like semen.

The last time she had anal sex with her partner was over three weeks ago, is there any chance at all that it could still be semen making its way back out? It comes out every day, surely there couldn't have been that much to begin with..

She's concerned and she's thinking of seeking medical attention soon, but if you could provide and suggestions as to what it could be (perhaps an infection?) then we would be very grateful. Many thanks.

Its not semen, and it could be gonorrhea or chlamydia rectally.

She absolutely needs to get checked.
