I'm having the same problems on Flomax with the retro.

Hi there, It could be you had an episode of retrograde ejaculation. Retrograde ejaculation occurs when semen goes into the bladder instead of leaving the penis during ejaculation.

Hi there, “Sudsy” often indicates proteinuria. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) and retrograde ejaculation are commonest causes of this condition. During sexual arousal the prostate gland manufactures fluid that accounts for about 2/3 of the volume of ejaculate. The seminal vesicles are paired structures located behind the prostate gland that also manufacture fluid.

What happened to your sperm is called Retrograde Ejaculation. The seminal fluid passes from the posterior part of the urethra and into the bladder. I would definitely see a urologist, quit drinking as much, and get tested for diabetes. Hope this helps.
