Hematospermia means blood in the semen. The color can range from light pink to rust red, and it usually shows up without any warning pain.

The main sign is a color change during ejaculation. Instead of pearly white, the fluid looks pink, red, or contains small clots.

Volume may increase slightly. The extra blood can make the load look bigger than normal, but the texture stays the same.

Most men feel no pain. The event feels like a regular climax, with only the color as a clue.

If the cause is infection or inflammation, a deep ache or burn can appear during climax or when you pee afterward.

Repeat episodes are common. The color may fade for a week, then return with the next orgasm.

Anxiety often rides along. Seeing blood down below can trigger worry, even when the amount is tiny.
