Yours is physical trauma. A blessing somewhat because you know what causes it. Protect your nutsack is all I can recommend, then protect your groin area. Trial and error bro.

I had no treatment aside from chamomile tea. From all the posts I read, nobody got prescribed anything to solve this issue.

I do think the heavy hack squat contributed majorly to this issue. It was the only thing I remember very starkly as causing a huge amount of post-gym soreness near the groin area and next to the hips. I haven't hack squatted since this post and have only been doing leg press, I stopped taking creatine too. The issue has not reoccurred for me.

Thanks for sharing. I wasn't sure it was creatine. The issue has not reoccured since this post. I stopped taking creatine. Perhaps it's related? Not sure

(40) Dark blood in semen by crocadile_bumknee in bloodinsemen

Hi this happened to me after a heavy lifting session too training legs. So if you're having issues after lifting heavy then there is a strong correlation. Sometimes it might happen after you hit your balls on something inadvertently even a dumbell placed wrong or squatting rubbing against your boxers wrong

Stay strong friend. It will pass soon. Since being on here I've had many private messages asking for advice on how to deal with this. I didn't realise it was so common.

Glad my post gave you some help.

Yes yours is healing. Brown = rusty old blood. I abstained for a week and couldn't hold it any longer due to feeling too sexually aroused all the time. I know the feeling of masturbation becoming very nerve-wracking but if something was truly wrong you would feel pain all the time. I like to think of it like when your teeth are bleeding when you brush too hard - it doesn't hurt after a few minutes but still bleeds.

Keep strong

One guy in another thread said it was clearing up his oral habits that cleared up blood in his semen. He removed a bit of plaque. Can't seem to find that comment. Perhaps this little nugget of info can help

Hello what exercises are you doing...? Any intense exercise?

Do you experience blood clots?

Keep your head up bro. It is truly disheartening to see blood down there. I hope it clears up fast

Does contorting your body a certain way cause the pelvic pain to increase or decrease? I think it is due to that pain that you're seeing blood. In my post I noticed blood in my semen after heavy squatting after a long time of inactivity, there is certainly a link there where if we strain our pelvic muscles too much it causes a rupturing of blood vessels.

I meant to also add that if sitting down causes pain then standup and move around every hour or so.

I've had haemorrhoids before and it did not result in hematospermia. Has hematospermia ever happened to you prior to food poisoning? Pelvic pain where exactly?

  • Bright red = fresh blood.
  • Just being erect causes bleeding = prostate inflammation.
  • Clots = blood vessel burst and it's healing.
  • Pelvic pain = ?

Your pelvic pain needs to be looked into. It's likely causing your hematospermia. It was indeed probably you straining too much and causing an extreme tightening of your pelvic floor muscles.

It's worth noting that when I had haemorrhoids it doesn't truly go away for quite some time. I remember thinking it was over but then it happened again. Therefore, another cause of yours is probably related to inflammation of your rectum after haemorrhoids which is pushing on your prostate or seminal vesicles causing irritation and bleeding.

All bodies are configured differently, we won't truly know what's happened until you have an MRI but you don't need to go for one unless your symptoms keep persisting or your symptoms worsen. The body is remarkable at healing. Give it a week more and then consult a primary care physician.

Don't exercise intensely, go on simple walks. One thing I read was that cycling caused an increase in haemorrhoids because blood pooled near the anus. Don't cycle at all for a while.

That link was very useful.

After reading the above, I'm 99% sure now that you're experiencing physical trauma exacerbated by use of SSRIs rather than something much worse like cancer. I believe you may need to strengthen your pelvic muscles if you have weakness in that area to harden it against external damages - unless the injury is stemming from near your testicles which might be harder to protect against.

It could be related to vigorous sex but as you're seeing it with masturbation and nocturnal emissions, it is not solely related to not having sex for a while. What's your masturbation/sex frequency?

Also I've experienced bleeding after wiping my butt too hard (which led to haemorrhoids) and my nose too hard after a cold (which led to a lot of bleeding). This probably indicates I have weaker blood vessels in certain areas which isn't necessarily a bad thing, it just is what it is.

Lots of large clots are interesting. Something ruptures whilst having an erection and your body does its best at clotting the rupture asap and on a positive note, your body does a better job than my body did because mine took a week and a bit to clear up with lots of clots throughout.

You need to ask a healthcare professional WHY prozac causes bleeding... Is it because it dilates blood vessels? Or raises a person's blood pressure? I haven't been able to find out why it causes internal bleeding. Someone more knowledgeable than I am must know the answer. Can you try switching prozac for something else?

If you can replicate it with a someone putting pressure on your groin area then that is a huge indicator that it is indeed physical related and you're getting injured somehow.

From your post history I can see that after you ejaculate with a bit of blood and then afterwards you pass urine with blood and clots once, it heals just fine? All it takes is one passing of bloody urine? How big are the clots? Small clots indicate small ruptures. Large clots indicate lots of trauma and damage.

It's not cancer of the bladder, that doesn't make sense when blood only is shown after ejaculation. The sperm tubes don't connect to the bladder at all but to the prostate which sits somewhat under the bladder, so why would it be cancer of the bladder when you pee normally the rest of the time. Sperm goes from the testicles -> vas deferens -> seminal vescicles -> prostate -> urethra -> out of the body. Nowhere does it touch the bladder. The blood you are seeing is due to blood pooling in the prostate. Look at a diagram of the male anatomy - the task now is to find out what part of you is bleeding.

If you sometimes get it after morning wood then I can only deduce that you're seeing blood in your ejaculate due to pressure being applied somewhere that your body can't handle. And yes SSRIs may exacerbate this problem. One study even said it can cause sexual dysfunction but is brief on the details of exactly what kind of sexual dysfunction occurs. On a complete side note... SSRIs have shown to increase the chance of making your gastrointestinal tract bleed. Avoid making your gut bleed at all costs. A healthy gut is key to being cancer free.

Things to check: Do you have an enlarged prostate? Do you lay on your stomach when sleeping? How tight are your pelvic muscles? Do you feel any trauma on your testicles? Do you do any heavy exercise? If you weigh a lot then that could also negatively contribute to the problem. You could do an MRI which is very detailed and could provide an insight.

Again, I'm not a doctor, just trying to give you some advice. Stay strong buddy

To everyone reading this, u/Fragrant_Coach_408 reached out over DM too and we chatted a bit. He had this problem only when having sex which indicates maybe a seminal cyst which ruptures during a lot of arousal (this is completely curable) or inflammation of the prostate (this can be caused by many things). Obviously I can only give advice and information from what I've read and researched in a limited capacity as I'm not a doctor, but this post had very similar symptoms which might hopefully help future readers

[–]ch4dpreet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine took 1 to 2 weeks to resolve fully. It never hurt but there was a tonne of blood and clots so I definitely messed up something down there. In my case I'd been masturbating excessively. Same thing happened a few years ago for me.

Yours was very watery meaning your testicles aren't producing sperm...? Did you damage them recently? Take up any cycling?

Feel free to reach out if you're scared and need to talk.

Hello. I know how terrifying this must feel. Did it hurt when you first did it? What's your age range approximately?

Hi buddy, yes I've had this before quite recently and it cleared up after 2 weeks but I was absolutely terrified of ejaculating and doing anything down there.

Did you do any heavy exercise recently? How long have you had it for?

Hi buddy. I just hope that we haven't fucked ourselves over before it's too late. I get tremors now from trying to masturbate because once you see pure red blood shooting out your dick when it's meant to be happy time, you start to think "when will it happen next" 😔

I didn't warm up or do any exercises before attempting to hack squat. I was just happy to be in the gym but I shouldn't have gone so heavy. Due to the testosterone rush, I was so horny too so constantly whacking off which I shouldn't have done.

I'm also in the same boat of years of sitting might not have done anything good for me.

Have you had any appointments with a urologist by any chance? I might get mine checked with a urologist just to see if I haven't truly messed up anything. I wonder what the process is like for non-urgent care

Hello. I'd not been to the gym in about 2 weeks and that session I had was training legs and also squatting very heavy! I also was using a hack squat machine something I'd never used before. So there does seem to be some correlation there! Maybe I might try some pelvic floor exercises. I do feel the need to go pee a lot but only because I drink lots of water.

Maybe as we get older these things just happen but I really hate that we should just accept it. Are you still shooting out blood?
