My pre-ejaculate fluid starts out yellow and then turns clear

Question:

Hi,

Pre-ejaculate fluid (precum)

I was just wondering: in one picture you put on the web site you said pre-ejaculate fluid was clear and odorless. Well, mine looks like it is yellow when it comes out of the penis, but when it starts running down the penis head, it’s clear just like the picture and it’s sticky too. Is there something wrong with me? 

Answer:

If your pre-ejaculate fluid starts out with a yellowish tint but then turns clear, then you are seeing leftover urine from your urethra being picked up and pushed out by the pre-ejaculate fluid. This is normal and one of the purposes of the pre-ejaculate fluid.
