The seminal vesicle is the male sexual organ and belongs to the genitourinary system. Diseases of the seminal vesicle usually will cause infertility. However, the diseases of the seminal vesicle are extremely rare that minimum reports can be found in the literature. Males’ genitals organs consist of the prostate, testes, penis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, excretory ducts, and bulbourethral glands.

Seminal vesiculitis is the inflammation of the seminal vesicle and this condition is extremely rare. Seminal vesiculitis is usually caused by and highly associated with infection of the other males’ sexual organs. Seminal vesicle inflammation usually accompanied by the inflammation of other parts of the genitourinary system. Seminal vesiculitis is often acute in onset, although it can also be a chronic infection. The lack of data results in no figure in respective to total cases and new cases annually.
The risk factors for developing seminal vesiculitis are:
- Chronic prostatitis
- Urethritis
- Absent or reduce the secretion of semenogelin I
- Acute epididymitis
The clinical feature of seminal vesiculitis is:
- Painful ejaculation
- Seminal hyperviscosity
- Hematospermia or blood with ejaculated semen
- Low semen volume
- Infertility
- Pelvic pain
- Flank pain
- Abdominal pain
- Groin pain
- Abdominal swelling
- Blood in urine or hematuria
The physical examination for seminal vesicle is difficult to do due to their location are almost unreachable. History and investigations are really helpful in confirming a diagnosis of seminal vesiculitis. The investigations are:
- Urinalysis
- Seminal fluid analysis
- Transrectal ultrasound
- Computed Tomography scan or CT scan
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging or MRI
Seminal vesiculitis can cause premature ejaculation which is a form of sexual dysfunction. This happened as a result of blood congestion within the seminal vesicle that will cause the penis to be extra sensitive and make it hard for a male to hold for a longer time. Premature ejaculation is ejaculation which takes place around 1 minute following vaginal penetration.
Premature ejaculation will cause serious damage to the quality of sexual life and psychological state. The common organisms which cause seminal vesiculitis are Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Streptococcus haemolyticus. The good news is that seminal vesiculitis is treatable and the same goes for premature ejaculation. As the premature ejaculation, in this case, is a complication, hence, treating seminal vesiculitis can solve premature ejaculation.
Acute seminal vesiculitis is much easier to treat than chronic seminal vesiculitis. Both acute and chronic seminal vesiculitis can be treated with antibiotics. If seminal vesiculitis is not treated, it can progress to pus formation or seminal vesicle abscess. The specialist responsible for treating seminal vesiculitis is the urologist. Broad-spectrum antibiotics are frequently given along with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Antibiotics can help eradicate the causative organism while NSAIDs will help in pain management. Both medications will help in the reduction of pus production if there’s any.
As infertility is also the issue of seminal vesiculitis, evaluation, and intervention in this issue by a urologist are also important, especially for those who plan to have a child.
