&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Hematospermia is the presence of blood in the seminal fluids. While it is not perceived as a symptom of a major health condition, this may naturally cause trouble to the patient. Hematospermia, also known as hemospermia, haemospermia, or haematospermia could be an early indicator of prostate cancer. Although hematospermia is common to people aged 40 and above, this disease may appear to men of all ages.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Causes of Hematospermia&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Having blood in semen could be caused by several sources:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Infection or Inflammation &amp;ndash;infected tubes, ducts, and glands that are responsible for the production and transportation of semen in the body might cause hematospermia. Inflammation could be from the prostate which produces the fluids in the semen, or it may be from an infected urethra or the tube that carries urine and semen from the penis. Seminal vesicles, epididymis, and vas deferens could also be infected, causing blood to be present in the seminal fluids.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;The infection might come from several sexually transmitted infections including gonorrhea, chlamydia, or other viral infection. Four out of ten cases of blood in the semen are caused by these infections.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Trauma or Medical Procedures &amp;ndash; these non-bacterial causes may also contribute to having hematospermia including prostate biopsy, procedures for urinary problems, radiation therapy, vasectomy, and injections for hemorrhoids. Although the bleeding may be temporary, these factors are known to cause blood in the semen. Other physical trauma directly affecting the sex organs like pelvic fracture, testicle injuries, extreme sexual activities, or masturbation can also lead to this illness.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Obstruction &amp;ndash; blockage of tiny tubes or ducts in the reproductive tract can cause blood vessels to break and produce blood. Benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH is the enlargement of the prostate gland that blocks the flow of urine and pinches the urethra. This may also lead to the presence of blood in the semen.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Tumors and Polyps &amp;ndash; tumors in the prostate could be a rare factor of blood in the semen. Since hematospermia could be associated with cancer, risk factors must be professionally evaluated if there is a presence of blood in the semen as untreated cancer is a serious health threat. Reproductive tracts with benign polyps can also lead to blood in the semen.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Blood vessel problems &amp;ndash; damages in blood vessels or other tiny tubes involved in ejaculation may result in blood in the semen.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Other Medical Factors &amp;ndash; pre-existing medical problems may create complications like hematospermia. This includes severely high blood pressure, liver malfunctions, blood cancer (leukemia), or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Related Symptoms of Hematospermia&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Multiple related symptoms may occur. Underlying reasons that cause blood in the semen include:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Blood in the urine (hematuria)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Burning sensation or painful urination&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Painful bladder&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Painful ejaculation&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Swollen areas of sex organs&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Any penile discharge&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Other signs of sexually transmitted diseases&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Treatment for Blood in Semen&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;There are available treatments for blood in the semen depending on the causes.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Antibiotics are commonly prescribed to cure bacterial infections.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Anti-inflammatory medications are used to address the inflammation that causes the blood in the semen.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;For other medical conditions like liver diseases, high blood pressure, or STDs, the doctor may prescribe a different course of treatment.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;When the blood in semen is caused by a medical procedure like a prostate biopsy, the bleeding usually stops after a week&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Enlarged prostate glands that cause hematospermia are often treated with Finasteride (Proscar). This medication is administered to shrink the enlarged area.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;For younger men with no history of other medical conditions, bleeding may occur once or twice, however, it usually disappears on its own without having to take any medical treatments. When bleeding manifests repeatedly and shows other symptoms like painful urination or ejaculation, it is best to see a doctor for a proper diagnosis. For men with risk factors for cancer, it is well-advised to take tests and medical examinations required by the doctor to be assured.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
