What are the components of ejaculate? And
are the white pellet-like substances in my
ejaculate common? I intend to speak with
my doctors regaurding this but would like
an idea of what this could be, how serious
it maybe as in should I push for a urgent
appointment or are chances that it is safe
to wait 1-3 weeks to see my doctors? And
what terms I should use to properly
explain my condition to my doctors to
enable them to treat me more effectively
in this matter.

1. Ejaculate contains few components:
secretion from the urethral glands,
secretion from the prostate, secretion
from the seminal vesicles and secretion
from the testicles (which contains
spermatozoids).
2. I have no idea what those
“pellet-like substances in your
ejaculate” are.
3. Your conditions (erectile dysfunction
and “something that you have noticed in
the sperm”) are not urgent and you may
wait for 1-3 weeks.
4. Treating the prostatitis and avoiding
alcohol can help you a lot. By examination
of a sperm sample the doctor will get all
the data he needs.
