SEMEN IS NOT SPERM
Many people use the words semen and sperm as if they mean the same thing.
They don’t. Sperm are the microscopic reproductive cells produced in the testicles.
Their job is to fertilize an egg. Semen is the fluid that carries sperm. It is made up of secretions from the seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and other reproductive glands.
A man can produce a large volume of semen and still have a low sperm count or poor sperm quality.
In other words, the amount of fluid ejaculated does not automatically determine fertility. The same confusion exists between orgasm and ejaculation.
An orgasm is the pleasurable sensation. The sweet feeling while an ejaculation is the physical release.
One happens in the brain and the other one happens through the penis.
The problem is, most men are unconscious during sex. Their goal is just to cum. They fail to pay attention because they hold on to a woman so tight when experiencing an orgasm and think ejaculation carries the same feeling. It doesn’t.
Understanding these differences is important because many myths about male fertility and sexual health come from confusing these terms.
The bottom line is; A lot of semen does not necessarily mean a lot of sperm. And ejaculation is not the same thing as orgasm.
Pay attention. Enjoy your orgasms but you don’t have to ejaculate every time.
Retain that semen if you are struggling to make her pregnant.
