blood in semen for over 2 years

By concernedwife79 Thursday, May 15, 2008

My 30 year old husband has had blood in his semen for over two years.  He has seen a urologist and had several tests, but they just tell him its hematospermia.  Everything that I've read about this condition says that it lasts for a maximum of a couple of months.  Why has his bleeding persisted for over two years now, and should we be concerned and seek a second opionion?  Also, can this condition affect his fertility?

Hi,

I have the same condition with blood in my semen for 1.5 years now.  It happened about 10 years ago but cleared after a few weeks.  This time it's become chronic I'm afraid.  I've been to several doctors and a urologist and had several tests but not an ultrasound which is why I'm going to see another urologist next month.  I'd like to get a second opinion.  i tried two different antibiotic rounds, a scoping of my urethral and bladder.  The last urologist wanted me to take Prosgard, but I declined not liking the nasty side effects I found out about including irreversible impotence and lack of libido.  Mostly the doctors say not to worry about it, that it's not cancer and is not serious, but it's shattered my dating life.  Your husband is lucky to have an understanding and supportive partner like you.
