What Does Blood In The Urine Indicate?
Question: Hi I am 65 years old male. I have noticed blood in my urine usually two to three days after having sex or masturbating. What causes this. I am not taking any prescriptions at all other than Pepcid for heartburn
Brief Answer:
Trauma-related most likely
Detailed Answer:
Hello There! Thank you for using HealthcareMagic,
I have gone through your question.
If the blood is after intercourse or masturbation may be related to trauma (hard sexual activity) during these activities.
However, I would suggest to go ahead and have a urine routine and microscopy test to rule out any possible urinary tract infection, stones or prostate problems.
Hope the answer is helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take Care!
