I am a male, 38 yrs old, not overweight and fit. My problem started about 3 yrs ago when my semen volume started to decrease. At the moment it is just a few drops (0.3ml) I went to a urologist and he send me to a radiologist who check my prostate and also check for blocked seminal vesicles. No problem was found. A blood sample shows also everything OK. My testosterone level is right.
My problem is not consistant. The viscosity of my semen will vary from day to day. It can be like water the one day and the other day it will be thick. Sometimes its about 0.5ml and some times 0.2 ml. I had a vasectomy two yrs ago. What is interesting is that my first ejaculate after the vasectomy was right (About 5ml) for the first time. This also was the last time I had a "normal" volume.
Maybe I should not worry about it, but it is a concern to me - I am physically 100% exept for this problem. I do ejaculate at least once a day. Please help me?? Should I worry?? I am worring that I may "dry" up!

When you say your testosterone was OK, what was it. The normal range
is quite large 10-35. If you were a 30 before and now you are a 14
you would be considered normal but it wouldn't be normal for you.
Have you tried cutting back on the masturbation to a couple times
a week to see if things get back to normal?
My volume do not change even if I do not ejaculate for three days. I was negatively tested for retrogarde ejaculation. My testosterone is 24.2. I do not know what it was before.
