Reproductive Problems: When There’s Blood in the Reproductive Fluid
by John Dugan OwnerThe
shade of color typically found in healthy reproductive fluid can vary from
white to grey to a light yellow, but when the color turns pink, brown or red, a
guy needs to take notice. Such coloration tends to indicate there is blood in
the reproductive fluid, and for the sake of avoiding future reproductive
problems, he needs to pay some attention to what is going on.
How
it gets there
As
the Mayo clinic explains it, reproductive fluid is made up of both reproductive
fluid and fluids that are added to it as it travels along its path toward
ultimate release. This pathway is made up of tiny tubes which are typically
surrounded by blood vessels of varying sizes. In addition, there are blood
vessels in or around the bladder, urethra, prostate and male organ, which are
areas with which fluids may come in contact. If any of these blood vessels
rupture, they may leak blood, which may then flow into the reproductive fluid
at various points along the path.
Hematospermia
The
technical name for blood in the reproductive fluid is hematospermia. It can
show up in a man of any age, but it most commonly occurs between the ages of 30
and 40 and again after age 50. The good news is that, while the presence of
blood may be alarming to a man, in most cases it is benign and very often
resolves itself without any need for treatment.
Causes
So
the blood usually occurs because of vessels rupturing – but what makes that
happen? It turns out there are many things that can cause blood in the
reproductive fluid.
The
most common cause is due to a rupture during a prostate gland biopsy – and that
is why the condition is common among men over 50, who are in the age group
where such biopsies become more common. The same can happen when a man has
surgery for a prostate issue – again, a more common occurrence after age 50.
In
some cases, hematospermia may indicate the possibility of prostate cancer;
however, this is a fairly rare outcome. Nonetheless, because of this
possibility – and because it could also indicate some other condition that may
require attention – it’s always good to let a doctor know when one has
experienced hematospermia.
In
other cases, an infection – often socially-transmitted – may be to blame. Some
infections that may create a bloody situation include gonorrhea, chlamydia,
cytomegalovirus, and trichomoniasis.
Inflammation
can also be a factor. If the urethra, prostate or epididymis is inflamed,
ruptures may occur. The same can happen if there are obstructions of some sort
along the male organ duct.
And
sometimes the vessels rupture simply because a guy was having too good a time.
Engaging in intimate activity for too extended a time, or in a manner that is
too aggressive, may bring about small vessel damage.
Often
the blood will go away on its own; however, if the reproductive fluid remains
bloody for an extended period of time, or if there are other symptoms
associated with it (such as pain, especially while urinating), it’s best to see
a physician.
When
aggressive or extended play causes blood in the reproductive fluid, it may also
bring about soreness in the male organ. Regular use of a superior male organ health creme (health
professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe
for skin) can be beneficial in alleviating that pain. The male organ
skin needs to rejuvenate, so finding a crème that contains a combination of Shea
butter (a high-end emollient) and vitamin E (a natural hydrator) is an
excellent way to go. In addition, male organ skin will be more resilient if it
is treated with a crème containing alpha lipoic acid. This potent antioxidant
fights free radicals that can cause considerable stress and damage, thereby
weakening the skin and its defenses.
