Brief Answer:
microhematuria can be hereditary
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
You have had a complete workup for hematuria and all was reported as normal. Frequently we do not find a cause for the blood. But the most important thing is not finding cancer. Since this amount of blood loss is so small it will not cause any additional problems like anemia. I would not be concerned about have the microscopic hematuria and go on in your life like normal. I do recommend doing the follow up visits to be certain about the hematuria.
I hope I answered your question. Please contact HCM again with your health care concerns
