Semen is a whitish fluid that contains seminal fluid and sperm. It is generally expelled from the penis when a man ejaculates. But men may experience semen leakage at other times, such as when they are urinating or sleeping.

Leaking semen isn’t always a problem, but there are times when it can signal a health problem that needs medical attention.

Genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder (GPPPD) refers to significant pain and difficulty with penetrative vaginal sex that lasts for at least six months.

GPPPD is actually an umbrella term for two sexual pain disorders: dyspareunia (painful intercourse) and vaginismus (a situation in which the muscles in the vagina contract to the point that penetration is difficult, and sometimes impossible).

Women tend to prefer circumcised penises over uncircumcised penises, according to a recent Sexual Medicine review article, though the authors acknowledged several limitations and recommended further research.

Adenomyosis occurs when tissue that lines the uterus (the endometrium) grows into the muscular uterine wall. Some women with adenomyosis have no symptoms, but others experience:

• chronic pelvic pain
• heavy menstrual bleeding
• longer periods
• severe cramping during periods
• bloating

It’s natural for a man to wonder how his penis “measures up” to those of his peers.
