Spermaturia

Spermaturia is a human disease characterized by the presence of sperm in the urine.[1]

It can be observed in males of other species and then sometimes diagnosed in veterinary medicine.[2] The cause is most often a retrograde ejaculation. It may be physiological during urination after coitus (postcoital urination).
