Bulbourethral Gland: Function, Fluid, and Sexual Health

The bulbourethral gland releases clear pre-ejaculatory fluid that lubricates the urethra and helps prepare it for semen during ejaculation.

Prostate-specific antigen is a protein made mainly by the prostate that helps liquefy semen and can be measured in blood to assess prostate health.

Bulbourethral glands are paired glands below the prostate that release lubricating fluid into the urethra during sexual arousal.

The prostate gland is a small organ below the bladder that surrounds part of the urethra and produces fluid contributing to semen and ejaculation.

Seminal vesicles are paired glands behind the bladder that produce much of the fluid in semen and help nourish, protect, and transport sperm.

Semen is the reproductive fluid usually released during ejaculation and contains glandular secretions that may carry sperm cells.

Felching is the oral removal of semen from a partner’s anus or rectum after ejaculation, usually following condomless anal sex.

Cum is informal sexual slang for semen and may also be used as a verb meaning to ejaculate or experience orgasm.
