How hematosperm should be diagnosed and treated

  Hemospermia is one of the diseases of the male reproductive system, whose main symptom is the ejaculation of red semen during intercourse, mostly seen in modern medicine as seminal vesiculitis, which is less common clinically. The disease is often complicated with prostatitis, and its infection is mostly through direct spread of urethra and prostate infection; followed by lymphatic infection and bloodstream infection. As a result of bacterial invasion and inflammatory stimulation, the seminal vesicles become engorged with blood, and when sexual intercourse occurs, the smooth muscle and blood vessels contract, resulting in a large number of red blood cells and pus cells in the seminal fluid. According to Chinese medicine, hematosperm is mostly caused by the patient’s deficiency of kidney yin and the exuberance of phase fire, forcing the blood to flow delicately; or by excessive intercourse, which damages the blood channels and causes the blood to flow with the semen; or by the downward injection of damp heat, which fumigates the seminal chamber and causes the blood heat to flow delicately.  The diagnosis of hematosperm can be diagnosed when semen containing blood is ejaculated during sexual intercourse or masturbation or seminal emission.  If an adult man has had intercourse or seminal emission for a longer period of time (several months), his ejaculate is often thick and yellowish in color, and if the ejaculation is accompanied by discomfort or pain in the lesser abdomen or perineum, it should be distinguished from hematosperm.  The diagnosis of this disease can also be confirmed by the presence of a large number of red blood cells in the semen under the microscope.  The clinical laboratory examination should pay attention to the relationship between the pressure area and the secretion when collecting the secretion specimen by rectal palpation, massage the prostate gland first to collect prostatic fluid, and then massage the left and right seminal vesicle glands respectively after urination to collect seminal vesicle fluid, which will help in the differential diagnosis. If necessary, a seminal vesiculography can be performed to clarify the diagnosis. Laboratory tests can reveal a large number of red blood cells in the semen.  The food choice of blood sperm treatment, in addition to the treatment of vesiculitis for the cause, diet therapy can often achieve better results. The daily diet can often eat foods with nourishing yin, clearing heat, dampness and cooling blood to stop bleeding, such as duck meat, adzuki beans, water chestnuts, winter melon, fresh lotus root, capers, lotus seeds, jujube, barley, raw earth yellow, poria, yam, fresh fish, fresh fungus, etc., and the following medicinal meals can be used to regulate.  If you are suffering from hematosperm and do not treat it for a long time, the blood will accumulate in the semen, which will affect the quality of the semen. At the same time, if the original disease is not treated satisfactorily, it will also lead to a decline in general health, reduced sexual function, reduced fertility, which is bound to develop into male infertility. Patients who suffer from hematospermia for a long time without timely treatment can lead to prostatitis, vesiculitis, urethritis, epididymitis, seminiferous prostate stones, and urethral bladder stones. If hematospermia persists and worsens, the possibility of tumors cannot be ruled out. Hemospermia is very dangerous, and individual patients combined with extensive bleeding tendency in other parts of the body are likely to have systemic hematological bleeding disorders, such as leukemia and thrombocytopenia.
