Brief Answer:
Further diagnostic tests advised to determine the right diagnosis...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns.

1. The dark color of semen after sex might be due to:
- bleeding lacerations during heavy/dry sex
- genital problems

2. As you are also having penile leaking (looking like blood), then, further investigation tests are needed to determine the right cause:
- spermogram
- culture of semen
- abdominal ultrasound
- digital examination of the prostate from urologist
- PSA testing
- urine analysis

After analyzing the tests results, we can determine the right diagnosis and treatment.

For the moment, I advise to keep good genital hygiene and avoid sexual activities until improvement.

All the best!
Dr.Albana
