Treatment of hematospermia

Treatment & Monitoring

A patient with infection is given antibiotics. A man with cancer or urethral strictures may need surgery.Sometimes antibiotics may cause allergic reactions, stomach upset, or headaches. All surgery carries a risk of bleeding, infection, and other complications.

Some patients continue to have occasional episodes of blood in their semen. Others may only have it once.A man with a known cause for the blood usually gets better with treatment. After treatment, there are no limitations on activities.

Monitoring:

The man can monitor his semen at home for further episodes of bleeding. Changes or response to treatment can be reported to the doctor. Other monitoring is related to the cause , blood tests. Any worsening symptoms should always be reported to the doctor.
