Allocations in males imply neoplasms originating from the glans penis. We are talking about fluid or mucus inclusions that stand out from the urethra. This is a very alarming signal that is rightly a cause for concern. Patients are always worried when there is excessive discharge from the urethra.
Do not worry - some discharge is quite normal, but if the patient has found that the discharge is too intense, you should contact a specialist. First you need to define what the norm is.

Normal secretion from the glans
White discharge on the head in men is undoubtedly an alarming symptom, but there are those that are not the result of any inflammatory process or pathology.
They even testify to the normal state, healthy well-being:
- Sometimes men experience excessive sexual arousal. This state is accompanied not only by psychological and emotional signs, but also by physical ones. At such a moment, when aroused, only a few drops of secretion form on the foreskin and on the head. These are slime inclusions that have no color, are transparent. The liquid performs an important function, protects the genitals, so these "symptoms" are quite normal. It is important to take into account the moment of the formation of such a liquid only with excessive excitement. For example, such overarousal occurs during the morning uncontrolled erection;
- Phenomena such as wet dreams appear during puberty. The semen separation at this point is quite natural, just like during intercourse;
- There is also such a phenomenon as the uncontrolled excretion of stool. They occur during bowel movements when a man is overly eager and straining. This phenomenon is associated with a special structure of internal organs and becomes possible. These organs are located too close, so the secret is released when the intestines are overloaded with feces. These are insignificant drops, and the timing of their appearance must also be taken into account;
- The structure, the special formation of the body, also explains voiding prostorrhoea. In this case, fluids leak from the urethra, they also have an insignificant volume.
These causes of excretions in men under the foreskin are completely natural. Although there is some debate in the medical community as to whether prostorrhea is part of the norm. But if such a phenomenon does not cause discomfort, does not cause inconvenience, then it is not necessary to treat it.
Prostorrhea does not indicate inflammatory processes. But just in case, you need to check the condition of the glands to make sure they are healthy. However, white discharge from the penis or under the foreskin must be taken as a signal of some kind of disease and should be subject to a full review.
White discharge on the head, when they occur, is almost constant. But other inclusions are a short-term phenomenon that do not cause pain or discomfort. They are short term and if the hole is dry the rest of the time this is normal. In addition, the urethra should be clean, without plaque.
When should you see a doctor?
Everyone knows what state they consider normal, even intuitively. Excessive discharge is not for nothing that men worry, even if they refuse to admit it. In this case, you can not postpone the visit to the doctor. After some signs, one can understand that the vaginal discharge is dangerous, the earlier the treatment is given, the more successful the treatment will be.
A man can almost always see the penis unhindered, this is the peculiarity of the body structure. If the liquid appears alone, this can be a symptom of certain diseases, but attention should also be paid to changes in consistency, volume and other properties.
It is better not to allow the situation to worsen and, at the first signs, immediately take all possible measures:
- Pathological excretions have a specific color - for example, a gray, yellowish tint. White discharge on the penis is particularly unpleasant. If a brown liquid appears, this is already an extremely worrying symptom. White discharge from under the foreskin in men can be a sign of an infectious or sexually transmitted disease;
- It is worth immediately contacting a specialist if an admixture of blood is secretly found, as this is a cause for serious concern;
- Microbes and their vital activity can cause an unpleasant smell;
- If you experience new symptoms, such as itching and burning, that don't go away within a few days, you should see a doctor right away. The most unpleasant thing is that they can accompany sexual intercourse. Pain is also common when urinating;
- Consistency indicates the pathological nature of the secret. Clotted discharge in men can be a sign of chlamydia. Sexually transmitted diseases can pass without symptoms during the incubation period, but some changes indicate the activity of bacteria. Therefore, you need to carefully monitor the condition of the body. But if the disease is not treated, it will turn into a chronic form, and then the effect on the body will be extremely intense.
Possible diseases - how to determine them yourself?
As already mentioned, in the early stages, sexually transmitted diseases can manifest themselves as minor, difficult-to-detect symptoms. White discharge on the glans is hard to miss, but it appears much later.
To determine the presence and obvious signs of any disease, you do not need to ignore the symptoms. It is always necessary to carefully inspect the linen, and if in doubt, it is better to examine the condition of the penis in the morning, when mucus has accumulated during the night. It is worth noting that additional mucus may form after abuse of alcohol and spicy foods.
What complaints are to be expected at all? Often the discharge becomes a symptom of urethritis. This is inflammation, and the mucus secretion is a defensive reaction.
White mucus from the head in men most often indicates candidiasis. Thrush is not always sexually transmitted, it can be the result of taking certain substances or antibiotic therapy.
White fluid distribution in men is best treated in a timely manner and together with a partner. Otherwise, the disease will be transmitted from one partner to the other. It is necessary to restore the microflora, have proper nutrition and maintain hygiene.
White discharge from the penis also occurs with some sexually transmitted diseases. But more often the latter proceed almost asymptomatically. The treatment plan is drawn up by the attending physician, taking into account the clinical picture.
It is necessary to immediately exclude cancer, low-grade tumors.
This is a serious condition that can lead to excessive pathological secretion. After all, excess fluid becomes a consequence of the presence of an inflammatory process. And an oncological tumor can also lead to the appearance of a focus of inflammation.
Consultation with a specialist is necessary, and the sooner you consult a doctor, the better. This is an important condition for the correct and effective effect on the body. It is necessary to strictly follow all the recommendations of doctors, without interrupting treatment.
