Does sperm have any cosmetic effects?

There are many sayings about male sperm among the people. For example, many people believe that male sperm has a very high nutritional value and can be said to be the essence of men. Therefore, some women like to eat men's sperm or smear it on their faces. It is said that this is good for the skin. In fact, this is a misunderstanding caused by a lack of understanding of the composition of men's semen. So does men's semen have any beauty effect?

Does sperm have any cosmetic effects?

Some people believe that sperm is very nutritious, very good for women and can play a certain role in beauty. Is this true?

Semen is a highly nutritious body fluid that is designed to support the survival of sperm. However, the "high nutrition" of semen is only compared with other body fluids such as urine, saliva, sweat, etc. These body fluids do not have as many nutrients as semen.

Judging from the composition of sperm, sperm is mainly composed of water and some nutrients. Comparing food with semen, a 250 ml bowl of milk contains 8 grams of protein, 10 grams of fat, and 13 grams of sugar; a 250 ml bowl of soy milk contains 11 grams of protein, 5 grams of fat, and 29 grams of sugar. From the perspective of nutritional value, milk and soy milk are much more nutritious than semen.

Although the components of semen are beneficial to the human body, this does not mean that semen has beauty effects. Semen is not easily absorbed by the skin and cannot act directly on the skin. Therefore, semen cannot have a cosmetic effect when it acts directly on the skin.

In fact, semen is neither a tonic containing high nutrients nor a panacea for female beauty treatments. The amount of semen a normal man ejaculates through sexual intercourse or masturbation is 3-5 ml. Semen is grayish white, weakly alkaline, and has a peculiar fishy smell, which is mainly the smell of prostatic fluid. Seminal fluid accounts for more than 95% of the total fluid, and sperm accounts for less than 1%. Every cubic centimeter of testicular tissue can produce 2 million sperm every day, which means that each male testicle can produce tens of millions to hundreds of millions of sperm every day. Even if these sperm are not expelled from the body, they will age, die, and eventually be digested by enzymes.

Seminal fluid is composed of a mixture of secretions from the supporting cells of the seminiferous tubules, epididymis, prostate, seminal vesicles, bulbourethral glands and paraurethral glands. The secretions of the seminal vesicles and prostate account for approximately 65% ​​and 30% of the total volume, respectively. Seminal fluid mainly provides a matrix for transporting and nourishing sperm, and stimulates sperm motility.

Semen is composed of sperm and seminal fluid. The main component of seminal fluid is water, accounting for more than 90%. Other components include fat, protein particles, pigment particles, phospholipid bodies, amines, free amino acids, inorganic salts, enzymes, and sugars. These components are similar to those of plasma, except that they differ in their sources, forms of existence and functions. In terms of function, semen is not a nutrient, but a necessity for reproduction.
