We have all heard a host of stories and legends about semen. People often wonder, rightly or wrongly, whether it causes weight gain or whether someone can be allergic to a man’s semen. In the past, some even believed that swallowing it could cause pregnancy. To separate fact from fiction, Sexxx Plus has chosen to dedicate a complete article to this mysterious fluid. Let’s take a closer look at semen!
What’s in it?
Semen is made up of natural ingredients and is rich in vitamin C, B12, protein, cholesterol, and sodium. It also contains calcium and fructose, and an average ejaculation is said to contain the equivalent of 15 to 30 calories. There is no need to worry: semen is not among the most fattening substances! In addition to not containing many calories, the seminal fluid surrounding the sperm is said to contain alkaline substances, which help dissolve fats. In the case of semen, however, one would have to consume a very large amount to notice any effects on the body. It is better to take care of your diet and maintain a healthy lifestyle if you want to lose a few pounds.
Semen: an allergen?
Semen can indeed be an allergen. Some women may react when they come into contact with a man’s semen. The culprit is not the sperm itself, but rather the seminal fluid in which it is suspended. This fluid nourishes the sperm and carries it toward the vagina during sexual intercourse. Seminal fluid is secreted primarily by the prostate. Ladies, be aware that you can develop an allergy to one particular man’s semen without being allergic to all semen everywhere!
Is swallowing semen dangerous?
Generally, no. Swallowing semen is not dangerous in itself, since it contains only natural elements that are harmless to the body. However, be cautious if you have an injury in your mouth during oral sex, since semen can transmit various sexually transmitted infections, such as HIV/AIDS and hepatitis B and C. Whenever there is a risk of transmission, don’t take any chances. Always use a condom… Take this opportunity to try our strawberry-flavored condoms, available in our online store: https://sexxxplus.com/fr/trustex-fraise-pqt-3
How long does sperm live?
Inside the vagina, sperm can live for between 2 and 5 days because conditions there are ideal. This is why couples are warned against using the calendar method of contraception. Indeed, the time of ovulation is very difficult to predict up to 5 days in advance, which creates a greater risk of pregnancy.
Fertile sperm
On the other hand, if you are beginning to try to have a child or plan to do so in the coming months, be aware that sperm need omega-3, particularly DHA, to form and develop properly. It is therefore important to prioritize foods containing a good amount of it, such as salmon, eggs, yogurt, nuts, asparagus, and broccoli.
We hope this has helped you learn more about semen and its composition. We bet it will no longer hold any secrets for you!
