Semen can kill bacteria? Why do you need antibiotics?

Semen contains a kind of thing called [semen cytoplasmic hormone], which has bactericidal effect on female vagina.

In order to write this article, I searched it a little. There are not too many articles with similar statements on the Internet.

These articles generally say that there is a mysterious substance called [semen cytoplasmic] in semen, which can kill various common pathogenic bacteria, including Staphylococcus what, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, etc.

Some even describe in great detail [semen regularly enters the vagina, gradually reaches the uterus and even fallopian tubes through the cervix], and then [plays a beneficial disinfection and sterilization role in these parts].

I am surprised that there are permanent bacteria in the vagina, while other places are sterile in the body, killing what bacteria? Disinfecting what? If semen is so severe, should doctors let patients [smear semen on the affected part three times a day] when encountering various infectious gynecological and andrological diseases? Now antibiotics are so expensive that there are such natural and powerful antibacterial drugs, which are worth a lot of money. This is amazing!

However, if I just spit out my words casually, it would be very disgraceful for me. In line with the attitude of treating everything scientifically, I started to inquire about the matter secretly like a detective. After spending 3 nights visiting major websites and databases, I can finally tell you my major discoveries!

Unexpectedly, there is really relevant research.

Around the beginning of 2001, the term “semen sterilization” began to be widely circulated on the Internet. Such a topic nature naturally exploded on the Internet, but suspiciously, the relevant articles did not give the original source.

I have always been witty, and I already feel something is wrong. This routine is exactly the same as rumors.

However, rumors cannot stop my desire for knowledge. After all, rumors often come from distorted facts.

Through hard inquiry, I actually found the first scientist who discovered that semen can resist bacteria that year! This is from India, The white-haired old scientist took my hand and told me how the research completed 40 years ago found that the semen extracted had strong antibacterial effect and finally extracted the antibacterial active ingredient [Seminalplasmin] from it. That year, the research was also published in the famous scientific journal Nature.

Unexpectedly, the plot will reverse.

A few years later, other scientists summed up the research on semen antibacterial, believing that besides semen cytoplasmic hormone, other molecules in semen also have antibacterial activity. However, these studies are all in vitro experiments, and there is no evidence that semen or its components can really play an antibacterial role in the body in a natural state.

Fortunately, the evidence was not very sufficient, and I almost thought I was going to lose the evening festival.

So I continued to search for relevant conclusions.

After further research, The Indian scientist discovered that, What he called [semen cytoplasmic] is actually the same substance as something called [calcostatin] found in other studies. [Calcium ions play an important role in the fertilization process], the scientist wrote hastily at the end of the paper. [We are now studying the regulatory role of semen cytoplasmic in the fertilization process].

Seeing this, I suddenly panicked.

What about the agreed research on antibacterial effect? Why did you run to study fertilization without warning?

Unexpectedly, really unexpectedly…

Ji Ge, with painful feelings, hopes to find the follow-up research on semen antibacterial by other scientists. Sure enough, I found it.

Jige hopefully opened a paper written by the disciple of this old scientist, called “semen cytoplasmic hormone”. It discusses its relevant viewpoints on antibacterial and protection of women. Here is a translation for everyone:

If the natural function of semen cytoplasm is to protect women, it can be expected that women who are single or have little sex life will have a much higher rate of bacterial infection in the reproductive tract. This speculation is interesting, but it is only a conjecture, because no molecules such as semen cytoplasm are found in human semen.

Well, semen cytoplasm is found in the semen of cattle and fruit flies. Goodbye manually, you’re welcome.
