Does excessive loss of semen weaken the immune system?
Does excessive loss of semen weaken the immune system and lead to tuberculosis?
There is no such condition as "excessive loss of semen". Ejaculation does not weaken your immune system. Neither does it lead to tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by an infection with the germ Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This germ is a bacteria. TB usually occurs as pneumonia, but TB can also occur in the brain, back, knee, lymph nodes, or other organs and bones.
TB is spread by breathing air that someone with TB has coughed in. Not everyone who breathes this air will catch TB. Generally a person has to breath the same air for a long time in order to catch TB. For example, it is unlikely that you can catch TB on the subway or bus even if a person coughing next to you has TB. You are more likely to catch TB if you live in the same apartment or otherwise spend a lot of time indoors with someone who has untreated TB.
