What Are the Functions of the Seminal Vesicle, and How Does It Affect Male Fertility? - #15282
I’ve been learning more about male reproductive health, and I came across the term seminal vesicle. I know that it plays a role in sperm production and ejaculation, but what exactly does it do, and how does it affect male fertility? From what I read, the seminal vesicles are glandular structures behind the bladder that produce a significant portion of the seminal fluid. But why is seminal fluid important for sperm health and motility? Are there any conditions that can affect the seminal vesicles, such as infections, inflammation, or blockages? Can issues with the seminal vesicle lead to problems like low sperm count, painful ejaculation, or fertility issues? I also read that prostate health and seminal vesicle health are closely linked. Does this mean that conditions like prostatitis or BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia) can also impact semen production? Are there any natural ways to support seminal vesicle health and improve fertility? I’ve heard that Ashwagandha, Shilajit, and Gokshura are used in Ayurveda to enhance sperm quality—do these actually help? If anyone has researched seminal vesicle function, what did you find most interesting? Have you or someone you know had any issues related to seminal fluid production, and what treatments or lifestyle changes helped?
