Brief Answer:
Unlikely to be cancer!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this blood in semen. I have reviewed your information fully and it is very unlikely to be cancer. Prostate cancer at your age is almost impossible. However, I will like that you get fully evaluated. Are you on any blood thinners? Also, do a PSA measurement and let’s see what we come up with.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
