No, seminal fluid is the liquid that carries sperm. Seminal fluid is typically clear or white in color and is produced by the seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and bulbourethral glands, while sperm are tiny, tadpole-like cells that swim in the seminal fluid.

Is it natural for a man not to have thick semen?

This is from a family planning website. Here is the link: http://www.fpahealth.org.au/sex-matters/faq/sperm_20030303.html Semen is made up of sperms( male sex cells) surrounded by seminal fluid. The seminal fluid is made up of secretions from the various male sex glands and contains all the ingredients necessary for the sperm's survival in the female genital tract. These glands also make the substances which give the semen its characteristic "ammonia-like" smell. The volume of semen ejaculated varies from man to man and is maximal after three days abstinence- with an average of about 3 mls a time. The look and consistency of the sperm is all designed to increase the chances of pregnancy in a female sexual partner. When it is first ejaculated semen is a thick, milky to yellowy fluid with a slight opalescence. The yellowy pigments (flavines) are made by glands called the seminal vesicles which sit just behind the bladder and are often seen,if you look closely, as coloured streaks within the semen. Just after ejaculation, the semen is usually quite thick and often has visible clumps.It contains sticky proteins which almost immediately cause the semen to form into a thick gelatinous clot.This is all designed to keep the semen high up inside the vagina instead of running back out through the vaginal opening. By about 5-20 minutes after ejaculation, other enzymes will start to break down proteins in the seminal clot and the semen liquefies again, allowing the individual sperm cells to continue on their journey.
