There are many diseases in this world that we are not really aware of, also because such cases rarely get detected. However, in these times I feel we should not really be ignorant about any of the symptoms that we notice in our body, because we never know if it could potentially be a disease or allergy. Nowadays, we are coming across some never heard before diseases a little more often, and a similar one made headlines when a woman from Hyderabad was detected with a rare semen allergy. Yes, you might find this quite new but it happens. After some thorough tests, it was confirmed that the woman had developed an allergy to her husband’s semen.
This case was found in a couple who was trying to conceive a baby for the past six years. The allergy was confirmed in the woman only after the doctor did a skin test on the woman’s hand with a few drops of semen collected from her husband. The Hyderabad woman was positive for Semen Hypersensitivity Reaction which in fact could be life-threatening if not diagnoses properly. The Hyderabad doctor who came across this case also that these kinds of allergies go unnoticed, as per the report.
For a semen allergy, the most common type of symptoms includes rashes, burns, and pain in the nether regions. Also, you will deal with a lot of cold and cough problems often, even breakouts on the face are a symptom. In worse-case scenarios, one could also face breathing difficulties and dizziness. The symptoms become visible after 20 to 30 minutes of being exposed to the allergic semen.
