While finding blood in semen can be alarming, it's often not a sign of a serious underlying condition. In many cases, it resolves on its own without treatment. Some potential causes of hematospermia include: infection: infections in the genital tract, such as prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) or epididymitis (inflammation of the epididymis), can cause blood in semen. Inflammation: inflammation or irritation in the urethra, prostate, or seminal vesicles can lead to blood in semen. Trauma: rough sexual activity, vigorous masturbation, or injury to the genitals can cause temporary bleeding in the semen. Prostate conditions: benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate) or prostate cancer can sometimes result in hematospermia, although these conditions are relatively rare causes. Medical procedures: certain medical procedures involving the urinary or reproductive system, such as a prostate biopsy or surgery, can cause temporary blood in semen.
