What is the reason for the blood in the ejaculation?

If a man has blood in his ejaculation, it is probably because of the woman's menstrual blood during sexual intercourse, or it may be caused by inflammation of the penis. Therefore, men should understand the situation of blood in the ejaculation, which is helpful for preventing impotence and infertility. There are many reasons for blood in the ejaculation, and I hope everyone can understand the content of the article.

1. Causes of hematospermia

Generally speaking, blood in semen is not easy to be noticed immediately by people, unless there is a lot of bleeding, otherwise it is difficult to find it during sexual intercourse. Even if the penis, clothes, etc. are stained with blood after sexual intercourse, people often first think that it is the woman's fault. If you wear a condom during sexual intercourse or ejaculate outside the body, it is not difficult to find blood in semen. When people suddenly find that the color of semen has changed, they will inevitably feel nervous and often worry and ponder, what is going on?

If semen suddenly changes from its normal milky white color to blood red, reddish brown, or mixed with blood, it is of course because blood has been mixed in. So where does the blood come from? It is nothing more than a pathological change in a certain tissue part of the sperm's running path, such as bleeding, inflammation, or even a tumor. Don't take blood in semen lightly, it may also be a signal of a serious disease. It is best to find a specialist for a serious examination. Clinically, blood in semen is not uncommon. After detailed clinical and laboratory examinations, the vast majority can be controlled or cured through treatment. Only a very small number of tumor patients need further treatment. In addition to the small amount of sperm, the composition of semen mainly comes from the seminal vesicles, followed by the prostate. From the anatomical structure, the ejaculatory duct connected to the seminal vesicle opens at the urethral ridge of the posterior urethra, and there are 10-20 prostatic duct openings around it. In fact, the seminal vesicle, prostate, and posterior urethra are interconnected, and inflammation can easily spread from one of them to the other two. In addition, the wall of the seminal vesicle is very thin, and once it is congested, the cyst wall full of blood vessels is easy to bleed. Therefore, the most common cause of hematospermia is first seminal vesiculitis, followed by prostatitis and posterior urethritis or posterior urethral congestion. It can also be caused by the spread of inflammation in other nearby organs, causing inflammation, swelling, congestion and bleeding of the seminal vesicle wall. Generally speaking, at least 70% of hematospermia in people under 30 years old is caused by inflammation.

If the hematospermia occurs only occasionally and no specific changes are found after examination, it may also be caused by the rupture and bleeding of tiny blood vessels in certain tissues due to rapid congestion and mechanical collision during sexual intercourse. There is no need to panic about this kind of transient hematospermia, as it can be completely recovered by suspending sexual intercourse for one or two weeks. Bleeding caused by inflammation is mostly intermittent, but does not last long. If the hematospermia persists and continues to worsen, the possibility of a tumor cannot be ruled out. Individual patients with extensive bleeding tendencies in other parts of the body are likely to have systemic blood system hemorrhagic diseases, such as leukemia and thrombocytopenia, rather than the consequences of local lesions.

Other causes include: tuberculosis, seminal vesicle cyst, seminal vesicle tumor, prostate cancer, portal hypertension due to cirrhosis, trauma, urinary tract obstruction, prostate hypertrophy, etc.
