See your family doctor. Have fun.
Quote:
Blood in semen or hematospermia can be due several causes like benign or malignant tumors of the prostate, bladder, testes, or seminal vesicles; infections like chlamydia, herpes, cytomegalovirus, and trichomoniasis; prostatitis (infection of prostate), epididymitis (infection of epidiymis), or urethritis; stone in the seminal vesicles or prostate, polyps in the urethra, obstructions in ejaculation-duct, and cancers of genitourinary system.
Usually the cause is prostate and is often due to a tear in one of the veins of the prostate (prostatic varices). Also this is most likely in your case.
Detailed medical history, physical examination, PSA levels (prostatic specific antigen), prostatic ultrasound, per rectal prostate examination, examination of the prostatic fluid, laboratory tests, transrectal ultrasound examination of the prostate, MRI, CT, and cystoscopy are usually done to reach a diagnosis. Evaluation for hypertension, chronic liver disease, amyloidosis, lymphoma and bleeding disorders will need to be done as well. These systemic diseases increase the risk factors for hematospermia.
Since I cannot examine you and know other related conditions you may be having, nor is a detailed history possible on net, I have listed the various possibilities that should be looked into. Please consult your PCP to run tests and examination to clinch a diagnosis.
Take care!
