Is semen an acidic or basic fluid?
Semen is slightly basic, with a normal pH ranging from 7.2 to 8.0. The alkaline nature of semen helps to neutralize the acidic environment of the vagina, thus promoting the survival and motility of sperm.
Why is it important that the semen is alkaline?
Basically, the alkaline pH of the seminal fluid is to protect the sperm. This is necessary for a couple of reasons: - The vagina is slightly acidic, while the sperm are made to be in an alkaline environment. If they had no alkaline protection from the semen itself, they'd die when they hit the vagina, which kills the entire (evolutionary) point of having sex. - Urine is acidic, and there's often some leftovers from some previous peeing in the urethra. The semen neutralizes the urine, lettin gthe sperm go through without dying.
