July 11, 2011 By L. Carr, Associate Editor and Featured Columnist Right guys, hands up who’s had a problem down below? Problems with the penis are much more common than many men think. And one of the most common reasons for concern is a discharge from the penis. Penis discharge is an abnormal leakage or loss of fluid from your penis and it is often the sign of a sexually transmitted disease (STD). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates there are around 19 million new STD infections each year, a massive total that costs the US healthcare system $16.4 billion every year. Because penis discharge can be the first sign of a serious health problem like an STD it should not be ignored. Don’t just hide the problem and hope it clears up. If you’re too embarrassed to see the doctor, or you think it will go away on its own, think again. What are the discharge signs that you can’t ignore? Penis discharge can come in an array of colors. You can suffer a lot of discharge or a little, all through the day or only on waking and peeing. What does it mean if your penis discharge is yellow? What causes white penis discharge? What should you do if you see a red discharge from your penis? Take a look at the table below to see the causes of penis discharge and what to do about this distressing symptom. Penis Discharge Chart – Color and Cause Do You Have Other Symptoms Along With Penis Discharge? Usually, when penis discharge is a sign of an STD it is accompanied by other symptoms. Chlamydia. A white or clear penis discharge is often a sign of Chlamydia. Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted disease that can be caught and passed on by both men and women. According to the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, in 2009 there were 1,244,180 reported cases of Chlamydia - 409.2 per 100,000 people in America. Many men with Chlamydia are unaware they have it, as it can produce no symptoms. But as well as a cloudy, white or watery discharge from the penis, you may have a burning sensation when you pee or a burning or itching around the opening of your penis. Testing for Chlamydia is becoming quicker and easier, in fact, a 2009 study showed that a rapid urine test identified 84 percent of infection in 1,200 men. Previous tests have been painful, involving a swab of the urethra, or inconclusive. Gonorrhea. Gonorrhea is also a common cause of penis discharge. Men get gonorrhea in the penis but also in the anus, eyes, throat and mouth. You may not have any symptoms, but you will probably have a thick yellow, green or white discharge from your penis, or pain when you pass urine. Your testicles may become painfully swollen. If you have gonorrhea of the rectum, your symptoms will be located in that region. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports 301,174 cases of gonorrhea in 2009 – 99.1 per 100,000 Americans. Trichomoniasis. Trichomoniasis, an infection caused by parasites and transmitted sexually, mainly affects women but when it affects men they usually have no symptoms. If you notice something it’s likely to be a yellow or gray- green discharge from the penis and an irritation or a burning sensation inside the penis. Balanitis. Balanitis typically occurs when boys and men are uncircumcised and inflammation occurs through poor hygiene, infections and irritants. Symptoms can include a white penis discharge. Blood in Semen. A red or brown discharge, or noticing red in the ejaculate, is most commonly an indication of blood in the semen. It may be nothing to worry about, or a sign of a urologic condition like urethritis. Urethritis is commonly recognized as a leading cause of blood in the semen, especially in younger men. Urethritis can be transmitted sexually or non-sexually. What Natural Remedies Treat Penis Discharge? If your penis discharge is caused by an STD, and many discharges are, you must seek medical attention and you will usually complete a course of antibiotics to get rid of the infection and clear up the discharge. There are a few natural remedies you can try, depending on the cause of your penis discharge. If you are suffering from Chlamydia, vitamin C added to the antibiotic treatment with doxycycline helped reduce discharge in women with the condition, according to a 2009 study from Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. To treat trichomoniasis, complement the antibiotics with the aromatherapy oil bergamot which may help dry irritating discharge. How Do You Prevent Penis Discharge? It doesn’t matter if you wash yourself after sex or use ointments and creams. The only sure way to prevent STDs and the accompanying penis discharge is to not have sex. If it’s too late for that or, like the vast majority of men, you’d rather not give it up you can prevent STDs by having sex with a partner tested to be uninfected who only has sex with you. If this is not possible or desirable, always use a condom, every single time you have sex. If you are diagnosed with an STD, you need to seek treatment because you risk re-infecting your partner(s), and yourself, if you don’t get it cleared up. A 2009 study from the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden found teenage boys take less responsibility for preventing the spread of Chlamydia and other sexual infections than girls. In a study of 500 17-year-olds a high proportion of boys said they wouldn’t follow advice given in sex education classes and that these classes had no impact on their behavior when it came to sex. Contrary to popular belief, men have as great a role to play in preventing the spread of STDs as women. If you notice a penis discharge, get it checked out and practice safe sex in the future.
