Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Morning, My name is Pieter van den Berg and I'm from South-Africa. I'm 28 years old and I exercise minimum 3 times per week. On Saturday I noticed that there is blood in my cemen. I got worried and went on to google to find the cause, but it says that it can be dangerous but only if you are over 40.
Can you please tell me what the cause might be and also how to treat it?
Regards

Prostate infection and disorders is the most common cause of blood in the semen. Blood in the semen can be caused by tumors, infections, anatomical abnormalities, stones, or inflammation in many sites throughout the genitourinary system. Usually blood in the semen is benign and resolves on its own. But if it persits you will have to see urologist.Regards
