Why do men have blood in their semen?

"Ejaculation bleeding" is a very scary keyword. Normal male semen is grayish white when it is just discharged from the body, and gradually turns into transparent milky white after evaporation. Ejaculation bleeding refers to the presence of blood or light pink in the semen, indicating the presence of blood cells in the semen. So, why do some people ejaculate bloody semen? What health problems does ejaculation bleeding indicate?

Doctors emphasize that when you find "ejaculation bleeding", you don't need to panic too much. It is important to find out the cause of the disease. There are many reasons for ejaculation bleeding, some of which are physiological and some are non-physiological.

1. Excessive sex

Excessive sexual intercourse, or forced interruption, or excessive intensity may cause rupture of the capillaries in the male reproductive organs, which may lead to ejaculation bleeding.

2. Prostatitis or seminal vesiculitis

Men with chronic prostatitis or seminal vesiculitis often experience bleeding during ejaculation. This is because these two diseases may cause bleeding in the seminal vesicles, resulting in the appearance of red blood in the semen.

Prostatic hyperplasia, prostatic stones, or immediate male prostate damage may cause the capillaries in the male reproductive organs to rupture, leading to bleeding.

3. Male prostate or seminal vesicle tumor

Male prostate or seminal vesicle tumors may also cause hematoma or rupture of the capillaries in the male reproductive organs, allowing blood to enter the semen and cause ejaculation bleeding.

4. Blood diseases

Diseases such as sepsis and thrombocytopenic purpura may affect the coagulation of the capillaries in the male reproductive organs, causing ejaculation bleeding.

Most ejaculation bleeding can naturally disappear, but if ejaculation bleeding is accompanied by symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and inability to hold urine, or if ejaculation bleeding lasts for more than a month, it may be the result of prostate disease and you should go to the hospital for examination immediately.

Male prostate damage is generally irreversible, and there is no effective treatment for prostate disease. Therefore, prevention is far better than treatment. In daily life, to maintain male prostate health, these five things must be guaranteed:

1. Regular sex life. Excessive sex life may cause abnormal hematoma of male prostate. Controlled sex life can prevent excessive swelling of male prostate and is beneficial to its physical and mental health.

2. Try warm water sitz bath. Pay attention to the local warmth, which can create a comfortable environment for the prostate gland, and at the same time reduce muscle contraction and relieve capillary hematoma. Persist in warm water sitz bath for 10 minutes every day, which has a good preventive effect on prostate disease.

3. Pay attention to hygiene and clean the perineum every day to prevent bacteria from invading the male prostate and causing infection.

4. It is advisable to eat more foods rich in nutrients such as zinc and selenium, such as peanuts and sesame seeds, which can enhance the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory capabilities of the prostate.

5. Do not sit for long periods of time. Sitting for long periods of time may compress the perineum or the male prostate, leading to prostate inflammation. Therefore, it is best to get up and move around every half an hour to an hour of sitting, giving the compressed male prostate a chance to release pressure, which is good for its health.

I suggest that male readers should not panic if they have bleeding during ejaculation. It is important to go to the hospital to find out the cause and seek medical treatment immediately. You should also pay more attention to the maintenance of the male prostate to prevent the occurrence of prostate disease.
