Semen

Semen or ejaculate is the fluid discharged from the penis during ejaculation, usually at the time of orgasm. Like blood, semen consists of two compartments, the cellular compartment (spermatozoa) and noncellular compartment (''seminal plasma''). It contains the sperm, which sometimes results in pregnancy following vaginal sex with a female. Semen is a whitish, milky fluid, very viscous, containing water and small amounts of salt, protein, and fructose.

Composition

Around 200 million to 500 million spermatozoa (or 'sperm', for short), produced in the testes, are released per ejaculation. However, they make up only about 2–5% of the volume of semen. The bulk of the semen is composed of seminal plasma, the fluid portion of semen. This fluid is contributed by the accessory male reproductive organs. Some 60% of the volume of ejaculate is produced by the seminal vesicles, and most of the remainder is generated by the prostate. A small amount of viscous mucus secreted by the bulbourethral glands contributes to the cohesive jelly-like texture of semen. Seminal plasma of humans contains a complex range of organic and inorganic constituents. They include metal and salt ions, sugars, lipids, steroid hormones, enzymes, prostaglandin hormones, amino acids and basic amines. The purpose of the seminal plasma is to provide a nutritive and protective medium for the spermatozoa during their journey through the female reproductive tract. The normal environment of the vagina is a hostile one for sperm cells, it is very acidic (from the native microflora producing lactic acid), viscous, and patrolled by immune cells. The components in the seminal plasma attempt to compensate for this hostile environment. Basic amines such as putrescine, spermine, spermidine and cadaverine are responsible for the smell and flavor of semen. These alkaline bases counteract the acidic environment of the vaginal canal (which is harmful to sperm), and protect DNA inside the

Semen & Skin

As for semen being good for skin, it is an interesting claim. I have not heard any actual scientific discussion on this, but I do know that semen cotains a good quantity of zinc. Zinc is an ingredient in many commercial skin lotions and dandruff shampoos and is very good for the skin. It therefore stands to reason that semen could be used as a kind of natural "zinc cream". Food for thought. 209.217.75.162 20:14, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC) ---- Hi there. I've split the text into section headings. I've also added a section on nutrition. See the link that I added for source information on this. Also, I think that zinc should be listed in the composition of semen. I will leave it up to others decretion to make this edit. 209.217.75.162 09:20, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC) ------- Sperm in semen could be carrier of exogenous (viral) DNA into offspring.

I asked a professional nurse and she immediately refuted the claim. I have restructured this document somewhat
