Hyperspermia
In medicine, hyperspermia is a condition in which a male has an abnormally large ejaculate (or semen) volume,[1] and is generally defined in humans when the ejaculate is above 5.5 ml.[2] Males with hyperspermia usually have higher sex drives than males that do not. It is the opposite of hypospermia.
