Pre-ejaculate, sometimes called precum, is a clear fluid that is released when a man becomes sexually aroused, but before he ejaculates. Pre-ejaculate fluid neutralizes any acidity left by urine in the urethra, protecting sperm that flows through. Men produce differing amounts of precum, from a few drops to about a teaspoon. Generally, the amount is nothing to worry about.

Pre-cum is capable of transmitting sexually transmitted infections STIs like human immunodeficiency virus HIV from an infected individual to their partner, so it is recommended to use a form of protection like a male or female condom during sex to avoid any significant risk. These small glands are also known as the bulbourethral glands. This pair of organs is located just below the prostate gland and are parallel to the urethra , the primary channel which transports urine and semen out through the penis.
