Suggest Treatment For Blood In Semen

I have been having blood in seamen for about 6 months now. I have had blood work performed and also had a PSA test taken which results came back as .7. My father had prostate issues, but did not have prostate cancer. I am concerned. What should my next approach be.

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query .

Based on the fact that you have Hematospermia with raised PSA of 7 you need to investigate thoroughly to rule out cancer of the prostate .

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis
3) Serum PSA.

If repeat PSA reading is still high you will need to do Ultrasound guided prostate biopsy to rule out cancer of the prostate

Further investigations if required and treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
