Suggest Treatment For Hematuria
Hi, I've noticed infrequent clot like substance at the bottom of the toilet water after urination. It's a few small pieces, brownish color, doesn't look obviously red to me. Its happened 3 times over the past ,month or less. I just had a physical include Papp smear, results came back normal. I have low progesterone according to recent blood test confirming I am post menopausal. I have endometriosis and have had two laproscopy surgeries many years back. What would the clot like substance suggest?

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
Hematuria is blood in urine and in most cases this is caused by urinary infection or urinary stones so you should do urine analysis, urinoculture and kidneys ultrasound to rule these out. Also, vesicoureteral reflux may be possible cause which is anomaly of bladder but can be easily treated. You should drink raspberry tea and plenty of water till you do tests- Also, avoid sexual intercourse and have keep good hygiene. You should reduce salt in your diet as well. In most cases this is self limiting but sometimes antibiotics are required and more invasive tests such as cystoscopy or J prothesis insertion.
