I have found some dark semen after ejaculation and sometimes it is like a very small brown spot in my underwear after a night of being very aroused or excites though I am a healthy 60 years old.
My doctor had done several tests and nothing could be found (PSA, prostate rectal exam, etc, etc) but in the last 2 o 3 years I can see it from time to time. This make me very nerveous obviously, but I want to share it with people who has the same problem. Thanks
Hi Gusdan,
There are a couple shareposts and articles here that might give you information to use when speaking to your doctor. No one knows your care better than you and your doctor, but these resources will help you ask all the right questions!
This posting by the Harvard Health Publications gives several reasons for having blood or a bloody tinge in your semen. From what I have read, it is not considered critical unless there are circumstances other than just the blood. You can read the Harvard article here.
Dr Jay Motola also had a share post that was very informative. You can read that post here. Again, Dr Motola reiterates that, " Although bothersome to the patient, it tends to not be of any great significance, especially when it is not associated with any coexisting symptoms. "
There have also been users here who experienced similar issues. One of them was Paul Durham. His posting can be read here. There were some comments with more information that you might be interested in.
By all means if you are having pain of any kind, or if you are worried, see your doctor. Better safe!!
Stay in touch and let us know how you are doing!
