Semen Volume Reduction
To Whom Ever can advise
"I'm a 62 year old male. I have noticed that just in the past several years my semen volume has diminished to just a drop when i ejaculate. My penis no longer throbs and my testicles seemed to have gotten a lot smaller. My sex drive is much reduced and my climaxes are almost pseudo. My penis does'nt get all that firm when erect and I don't walk up in the moring with an erection as in the past. Even if I go a month without ejaculating or no matter how aroused I am it stays the same. When I do ejacualte its with great labor and then only clear sperm comes out with little or no semen. I've talked to my family doctor but he does'nt see it as a serious concern. He says its part of our aging mechanism to discourage men from "wandering". No big deal! But it is to me. Is there anything that can be done.

A reduction in semen can be caused by certain drugs (such as Flomax and others). It is somewhat a part of aging but can also be caused by prostate enlargement which interferes with proper ejaculation just as it does urination. A small amount of a daily alpha-blocker ( a blood pressure med) can help relax the prostate muscles, if that is causing a restriction. If your doctor dismisses it, insist that this is bothersome to you and make sure you are doing all you can.
