Brief Answer:
What is the exact colour?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Can you be more specific and tell what exact is the colour of semen.
If it is brownish, then it may indicate prostate infection or urinary infection.
If it is bloody then it may be kidney stone or epididymitis.
In every case, you should do urine analysis, STD test and prostate ultrasound to rule out the causes.
Please get back to me with the details asked so that I can assist you better.
