Why is there blood in my sperm ? Hematospermia explained - Dr Shahs Clinic

Why is there blood in my sperm ?

This is again a fairly common question I get from my patients day in and day out. The presence of blood in semen can be distressing to anyone both mentally and physically.

However, do not get alarmed, hematospermia is not always that bad!.

If you are young and you notice blood mixing with sperm/semen only 1 or 2 times at best then you mostly have nothing much to worry about. However, on the other hand if repeatedly notice blood in semen then you should be worried, more so if you are over 40 years of age.

In individuals who are over 40 years of age and who frequently find blood mixing with semen or blood in sperm prostate cancer must be ruled out for sure.

However for all patients with hematospermia, the prostate, the seminal vesicles have to be imaged along with stds like chlamydia, gonorrhea should also be assessed and ruled out.
