The Release of Semen Due to Illness Does Not Nullify Fasting

Question
Does the release of semen due to a medical examination nullify fasting?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: If the discharge is due to examination from me, then it occurs with desire and invalidates the fast. If the discharge is merely secretions and not semen due to the examination, then it necessitates ablution but does not invalidate the fast. This is what usually happens, and God knows best.
