    Question

    I had masturbated twice in one day and the second time around, there was blood in my ejaculation. I had jogged for an hour before my second masturbation. Is this normal? About a week later, there were dark lumps of blood in my ejaculation. and my testicles felf sore. Is this something to worry about..? when will the bleeding stop? Please help...

    Answer

    Blood in the semen is almost never anything to worry about. Furthermore, once the blood happens once, it may continue to appear in the semen for months! Usually it starts out red, then later kind of a brownish color. No worries
