Male urine may appear milky white for a variety of reasons. First of all, the possibility of crystalline urine should be considered. Phosphate and carbonate deposits will appear in alkaline urine. This crystalline precipitation is grayish white. After acid addition, it can dissolve. Carbonate can produce bubbles after acid exposure. When urine contains a large number of pus cells, inflammatory exudates or bacteria, fresh urine can be white turbid or cloudy. Heat or acid addition cannot make turbidity disappear. Pururia and bacteriuria are found in urinary system infections. If the urine is mixed with lymph and milk-like, it is called chyluria. Chylomicron can be extracted with ether and other organic solvents. Urine can be clarified and can be distinguished from other turbid urine phases. It can be seen in filariasis and lymphatic obstruction around the kidney. Secondly, spermatorrhea is shown in the process of male urination, which may also make urine milky white. Spermatorrhea is called synovial sperm in urination. Under normal circumstances, no special treatment is required. If it is pathological, corresponding auxiliary treatment can be given.
