Biopsy

[rakeman]

I had a prostrate Biopsy 6 days ago, no blood in urine, no blood in poo, but I have very dark blood in my semen, is that normal?

I don't know how common it is, but I had blood in the semen for almost a month. I don't think it is a cause for concern. I avoided intercourse until it cleared, but did my best to clear the system. LOL

Some info:

mayoclinic.org/tests-proced....

"Blood in your semen. It's common to notice red or rust coloring in your semen after a prostate biopsy. This indicates blood, and it's not a cause for concern. Blood in your semen may persist for a few weeks after the biopsy."

Thanks tango, Ken

Yes, everyone who gets a biopsy gets that. For me, it lasted about 3-4 weeks. Blood went from bright red, to brown, to beige and then faded. Your doctor should have told you to expect that.

Thanks to all of you for your replies, has put my mind to rest. Ken

Before you start drinking rustoleum... I would suggest you listen to our esteem members and give it some time to flush out naturally....And for heaven's sake man don't try to rake it out....

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

In a word, "yes."

Yes, after a biopsy you will have blood in your semen. Nothing unusual.

I don’t recall at this point wether it was during the biopsy or when they installed the markers for RT, but I passed a hunk of meat with my first urination after the procedure. Almost got stuck... had to push like a mother!! Called the Dr ASAP and they couldn’t have given two shits!! So I guess they can do some collateral damage in there, without worries!!!
