The sperm in the ejaculation has blood streaks

Many male friends will encounter many problems in life. For example, when ejaculating, they will find that their semen is stained with blood. If the ejaculated sperm is stained with blood, it can be said to be very serious. Because normal sperm is milky white or yellow. It is recommended that if you encounter this situation, you should go to the hospital for examination in time to avoid genital diseases.

Normal semen is milky white or milky yellow. If the ejaculated semen is pink, red, brownish red, or has blood streaks or blood clots, and a large number of red blood cells can be seen in the smear under a microscope, it is called ejaculation bleeding or hematospermia. The so-called ejaculation bleeding refers to a symptom of blood appearing in the semen during ejaculation. Most patients discover it accidentally. Many patients even discover it after sexual intercourse when their spouse's vaginal secretions appear dark brown or blood red. Some patients also discover the so-called "red in the snow" phenomenon by themselves due to extracorporeal ejaculation, masturbation or nocturnal emission.

Medically, it can be divided into macroscopic hematospermia and microscopic hematospermia. In Chinese medicine, it is also called "red turbidity". Hematospermia is more common in young men aged 25 to 40 years old. It is a common symptom of men's department. Patients often find blood in their semen after masturbation or sexual intercourse. This phenomenon can last for a long time and often causes mental tension, increased mental burden and even fear.

If you encounter hematospermia in your daily life, you should pay attention to whether there are other accompanying symptoms, such as whether there are symptoms of urinary tract infection such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating; whether there are symptoms of tuberculosis such as coughing up sputum, coughing up blood, low fever in the afternoon, and sweating; whether there is a tendency to bleed easily; whether there are symptoms of urinary tract obstruction such as difficulty urinating; whether there is ejaculation pain and abnormal sexual function; whether there is pain in the lower abdomen, perineum and other parts of the body, etc.

Hematospermia is mostly a benign and self-limiting disease. Its etiology is mainly seen in seminal vesicle lesions, such as seminal vesicle tuberculosis, seminal vesicle tumor, etc., especially seminal vesiculitis is the most common. Although generally speaking, hematospermia has no special relationship with some major diseases, sometimes hematospermia may be a manifestation of certain systemic diseases or serious organic diseases. Some experts have proposed that hematospermia can be caused by the collateral circulation of hemorrhoids, venous plexus and prostate and glandular plexus in cirrhosis of the liver; there are also reports that hematospermia is caused by schistosomiasis, and live schistosome larvae have been found in semen; it has also been found that hematospermia is related to hypertension, seminal vesicle cancer, renal tuberculosis and early cancer. Therefore, when hematospermia occurs, especially when it does not heal after regular antibacterial treatment, some special examinations should be conducted to rule out other possible organic diseases. Only by finding the real cause of hematospermia and treating it accordingly can a satisfactory therapeutic effect be achieved.

The discharge of red semen during ejaculation and spermatorrhea is called hematospermia in traditional Chinese medicine. Normal semen is milky white, grayish white or light yellow, while hematospermia is pink, brownish red or has blood streaks. When observed under an optical microscope, red blood cells can be seen mixed in the semen.

Due to the different bleeding sites and blood volume, the appearance of hematospermia is also different: the blood from the urethral mucosa that is congested during erection is bright red and does not mix with the semen, like mixed blood threads. Hematospermia caused by various inflammations and trauma is evenly mixed, red to brown, this is because the blood has been stored for a long time and the color has changed. Since the semen accumulated in the seminal vesicle cannot be emptied in one ejaculation, even if it is treated promptly and fully, it will take some time for hematospermia to disappear.
