Brief Answer: To rule out seminal vesiculitis Detailed Answer: Hi Welcome to Healthcare-Magic Greetings of the day Dear Mr Presence of blood in semen is known as hemospermia and in Urine is known as Hematuria. In the presence of both possibility of Urinary tract infection is to be considered. Just Urethritis will not cause Hemospermia. For the bllod to be prsent in the semen, it has come anywhere from vas deferns(tube carrying sperms fro testis) to ejaculatory duct. Its likely that the cause is more likely to be due to inflammation of seminal vesicles(They are located close to where ejaculatory ducts open into urethra). I would suggest you to get the following Investigation done in consultation with your Urologist 1. Urine examination 2. Semen Analysis 3. Ultrasound and colour doppler examination. I hope it helped. In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you. Take Care Best Regards Dr T Shobha MBBS,MD
