Explanation

A decrease in semen volume can be concerning, and there are different reasons why it might happen. One possible reason is the use of certain medications, like finasteride, which is sometimes used by men experiencing infertility. This medication can affect semen production.

Another reason for lower semen volume could be problems with ejaculation. Some studies suggest that certain treatments can help improve ejaculation issues. If you notice a change in your semen volume, it is important to discuss this with a healthcare provider. They can help determine the cause and suggest appropriate steps to address it. Remember, understanding the underlying cause is key to finding the right solution.
