What Causes Mucus Looking Stuff In Urine While Having Kidney Stones?

My husband has a kidney stone and this is all new to us. He started taking Flomax on Wed. night, and

awhile ago, peed into a jar, a bunch of mucus looking stuff. this is confusing. What is this stuff? i guess we

are still waiting on the stone to pass?

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that your husband has Kidney stone and taking Flomax .

Flomax has side effect of retrograde ejaculation where semen enters in to bladder rather than entering into urethra during ejaculation.

What you have noticed white stuff in urine is likely to be semen in urine.

You can get this confirmed by routine urine examination passed immediately after sexual activity.which will detect presence of sperms.
