Posted on Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Question: I had what looked like blood in my semen. I was worried so I visited doctor who took blood, semen and urine from me. I explained it felt a small discomfort when I ejaculated.
Results today said nothing abnormal and gave me some medication in case of a slight infection.
I just masturbated and red clumps like jelly came out with increased pain and When I squeezed remainder out a large clump of jelly came out
Please help

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The sperm follow a long path before getting ejaculated, starting from testicles to seminal vesicles to prostate and finally urethra.
Although a problem in any part of this path can lead to presence of clumps or gelly like material in semen, presence of blood clot is considered a symptom of seminal vesicle involvement.
I advice you to get a trans rectal ultrasound done to rule out involvement of seminal vesicle.
Please let me know if you want further clarification.
Wishing you good health.
Thank you
