Brief Answer:
It can be due to retrograde ejaculation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. As you get one time ejaculation of semen you are most likely normal. Most likely you are having a retrograde ejaculation after this. Watch your urine for cloudiness after this. In case of retrograde ejaculation you can find your urine cloudy after this.

Retrograde ejaculation is harmless. It can occur in those who taking antihypertensive drugs or drugs for prostate or just due to nerve weakness.

Taking supplements like zinc, selenium, aminoacids like L carnitine ,antioxidants like lycopene and vitamin B12 will be good also.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
