Hello. Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Hematuria or blood in urine has a lot of causes :
1) UTIs ( Untreated UTIs can cause hematuria )
2) Kidney disorders ( Nephritic Syndrome most commonly )
3) Kidney stones
4) Urinary bladder stones
5) Cystitis.
6) Polycystic Kidney disease.
If you haven't gone for urine culture, get a culture done. I will advise you to get a CT-KUB done and then meet a nephrologist accordingly for further management.
