Blood in Semen?

Posted on January 14th, 2008 by olga

Blood in semen or in other words in ejaculate is termed hematospermia.
The symptoms of blood in semen may include:
-Hurting urination
-Hurting with ejaculation
-Blood in urine
-Lower back pain
-Fever
-Tenderness in the testes and/or scrotum
-Swelling in the testes and/or scrotum
-Swelling or tenderness in the groin area
And now let’s give our attention to the reasons of blood in semen.
Blood in semen can be caused by numerous circumstances involving the tubes that give out semen from the testicles (seminal vesicles) or the prostate gland. The mainly universal reason of blood in semen is inflammation of the seminal vesicles or prostate gland. Blood in the semen can momentarily be caused by injury to the prostate gland, such as from prostate biopsy.
