Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / September 2006post biopsy sex
I'm scheduled for a prostate biopsy on Monday. I've read that blood in semen afterward is common for about a month, I think. Not long ago, after a cystoscope exam, I found that ejaculation was accompanied by severe burning a few days after - I suppose due to urethral inflammation caused by the procedure. (My urologist gave me no advance warning about this!) What has been the experience of others here with respect to erections and ejaculation after undergoing a biopsy? Many thanks. You shouldn't have any issues with erections. You may have blood in the urine, stools, and ejaculate. The ejaculate is usually the last to resolve. It may start out pinkish.. and then turn a rust or beige color that can last quite a long time (few weeks to months even!) It is entirely harmless to you and your wife. === http://www.DrYew.com http://www.SanDiegoRoboticProstatectomy.com *IMPORTANT* Any comments by me are for general informational purposes only, and should never be used to diagnose or recommend treatments for any condition without face-to-face consultation with a qualified health-care provider.

Make sure that they give you a local anesthetic into your prostate first and antibiotics afterwards. B.A. > I'm scheduled for a prostate biopsy on Monday.

I had blood in the urine only 4 or 5 days after both biopsies. > What has been the experience of others here with respect to erections > and ejaculation after undergoing a biopsy? Neither biopsy had the slightest effect on erections or ejaculation. I think they tell you to refrain for a few days. I've never heard anyone say they had painful sex after a biopsy. The first ejaculate is apt to look like ketchup - don't panic that is normal. It is also normal to have only a tint of pink or brown in the ejaculate after a biopsy. It lessens with each ejaculation. If you are concerned about a partner try ejaculating the first couple of times by hand so you know what you have. Bev > I'm scheduled for a prostate biopsy on Monday.

I don't recall any lingering pain from it and blood was barely detectable for a couple of days in urine. I don't recall any pain during ejaculation, though I may have waited a few days before attempting anything. I don't remember being in a very good mood at the time, and my mood got a lot worse when the results of the biopsy came back. Alan I don't recall any pain when resuming sex or any change in erections. I remember that the urologist suggested holding off at least 48 hours, which I did. The first ejaculation was a bloody, sticky mess and subsequent ejaculations were bright red for a while. Eventually they turned to a rusty color before the semen returned to normal after several weeks. I also recall that about a week after the biopsy, my urine flow suddenly stopped midstream and I had a very strange sensation until a large blood clot emerged into the toilet and my stream resumed. It was kind of shocking. I definitely agree with the other responder who suggested bringing yourself off by hand first to see what you've got. Be careful to avoid getting blood on sheets, carpets, etc. You might also consider using condoms with your partner for a while until the bloodiness resolves. > I don't recall any pain when resuming sex or any change in erections.

I agree, the biggest problem was complaints from my wife. Condoms are rec'd for a couple weeks. j. >> I don't recall any pain when resuming sex or any change in erections.

The blood is entirely harmless to either you or your partner, unless of course you are HIV positive, in which case you should be using a condom anyway. I'm a bit puzzled by the thought that a woman might be squeamish about blood in that vicinity---after all that happens regularly once a month for several days---but I suppose each of us has his or her own hangups. > j. > I'm a bit puzzled by the thought that a woman might be squeamish about > blood in that vicinity---after all that happens regularly once a month for > several days---but I suppose each of us has his or her own hangups. Why do you kiss your wife and then drink from a separate glass? Hello, I had blood in my semen for over 2 months following my prostate biopsy. Don't be shy about it Masturbate and it will clear up much quicker. > I'm scheduled for a prostate biopsy on Monday. I've read that blood in > semen afterward is common for about a month, I think.
