I had the UROLIFT over 2 years ago. Happy with the flow and fewer trips to the bathroom. Most recently i noticed some blood in my semen. Anyone have this experience?

Blood in semen could be due to prostatitis or something more serious. You didn't mention having a biopsy, which will result in blood in semen for potentially many months afterward.
Have you been tracking your PSA?
For this, I highly recommend you see your urologist.

Thanks Michael. Prostatitus is likely the problem. PSA is fine. Also, I was a bit dehydrated. Best,Steve

I had blood in my urine once. It was a cancerous bladder tumor. Make an appointment with your urologist today!

Thanks Lee, The blood was only in my semen..If it continues i'll definately see my urologist. I wonder if the clips on the Prostrate might cause bleeding?

I think most urologists would consider blood in the urine or semen a cause for concern anytime more than a month or so post-op.

I recently had a lot of blood after a hard work out, I think a clip might have pulled out. Now I still get blood in my urine after work outs. I'm not sold on Urolift

I had blood in my urine, turned out to be bladder stones! Easy fix. The uro, shot it with a laser, then vacuumed it out. No hospital stay.

I had blood in semen once pre-urolift. Doc didn't seem too bothered and it hasn't happened since that I've noticed. No blood post Urolift

Thanks all for your replys . It was a 1 time bleed, took some antiobtics and it stopped..thankfully. Does make me cautious about frequent ejaculations. I'm 69 so maybe time to slow down. Hoping the clips(4) don't move.
