I've noticed there's blood in my semen and it's got me a bit worried. I did a urine culture, semen analysis, and semen culture; everything came back negative except they found pus cells between 20 to 25 in the semen analysis. Is this something I should be concerned about, like an infection, or is it something normal?

Pus cells found in semen analysis indicate the presence of infection. To treat this infection, you can take antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Levofloxacin. It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
