My urologist still is unsure why I have hematuria (blood in urine). It started suddenly, was followed by a visit to the ER with ciprofloxacin prescribed, and ended 16 hours later. Went to a urologist, had a CT scan (no problems), a cystoscopy showing an inflammation, then a biopsy showing no cancer, but some redness in the bladder. I have been taking naproxen for a disc problem for six years, causing me to suspect it caused the bleeding. I am an otherwise healthy 70 year old man.

I have had bleeding which has increased in frequency over the past 6 months. I initially thought that I was getting vaginal spotting and that intercourse was bringing on my period. I saw a gyno who has done tests which appear normal for the end of cervix and vagina and now wants to have a look in the uterus for any abnormalities. My doctor has not done any tests of my urinary tract and I wonder now that this is where the blood is from as I get it every day with urination only. I havent had any blood with sex but I am getting bleeding daily with urination. I am very scared now because the amount of blood that I have had during sex is a lot and now I that I think it is from bladder or kidneys this scares me to think that it is probably bladder cancer or kidney cancer. My mother has only one kidney so there is a history in the family.

For anyone with blood in the urine, you should see a Urologist. There are cancers of the urinary tract that can cause bleeding. Don't put off being checked out, especially if you can see the blood in the urine. I know many patients who have urinated blood only once to find out they have bladder cancer or kidney cancer or other maladies. Smokers are at higher risk, most people don't know this. These cancers caught early are very treatable.

I have had ongoing UTI infections for the last couple of years with microscopic hematura. I was diagnosed with a kidney stone and unknown mass by way of ct-scan and x-ray. The stone was soft and disintegrated during the utererscopy; while the probe has identified that I have some sort of kidney cancer.

I have been diagnosed with "high levels of blood in my urine" for more than 10 years now. I've had all the above mentioned tests and no one can find a cause for this. I do know I have very high uncontrolled blood pressure. My Nephrologist doesn't seem concerned.

I have blood in my urine after my husband and I perform sexual intercourse.

I woke up 1 day before with pain in left side of my belly, next day when I was going to the toilet my urine was burning a little bit and I kept going in toilet all day long unusual for me. Next day I woke up and was in more pain, and the urine is darker and when I cleaned myself there was some pink blood in the tissue, and my belly feels like I'm full and I'm not hungry, I never have been in pain like this so this is strange for me. I'm only 22 years old.

My husband when he urinates has reddish urine most times and I have also seen clots in the toilet bowl after he urinates but he will not talk to me or a doctor. This has been going on for at least 6-8months. Any suggestions as what I can do to get him to have this checked. I know he is basically afraid.
