Hello.
Your penis isn’t leaking. It’s behaving exactly as your body is telling it to do. When men become sexually aroused, a gland called the Cowper’s Gland, secretes a milky fluid, also known as "pre-***." Some men produce large amounts of this fluid, while others produce very little. Everyone is different. This fluid clears the urethra of uric acid prior to orgasm. Without this fluid, many of the sperm carried in semen would be killed or damaged by the acid contained in urine. So when you get turned on, that’s what happens: Cowper’s Gland fluid comes out the end of your penis. If you’re producing lots of fluid, you might want to be sure to carry some tissues for wiping up.
