ABSTRACT
La hematospermia o hemospermia es un síntoma muy inquietante en la población masculina, pero que puede ser manejado en muchos casos por los profesionales de atención primaria. Porque no es una demanda habitual en consulta, requiere de conocimiento epidemiológico y un juicio clínico adecuado para poder enfocar correctamente cada caso y transmitir seguridad a nuestros pacientes. La anamnesis es la parte más importante de nuestra intervención, porque respondiendo a 3 cuestiones como la edad, la duración del sangrado y la aparición de síntomas o factores de riesgo asociados, podremos orientar el caso. Es en el diagnóstico donde más se ha avanzado en los últimos años, llegando a conocer la causa de la hematospermia en la mayoría de los casos (AU)
Haematospermia or haemospermia is a worrying symptom in the male population, but can be managed in many cases by primary care providers. As it is not often seen in clinics, it requires epidemiological knowledge and an appropriate clinical judgement to focus correctly on each case and to ensure the safety of our patients. The clinical history is the most important part of our intervention, and answering three questions, such as age, duration of bleeding and symptoms or risk factors may help in the diagnosis. More progress has been made in its diagnosis in recent years, due to determining the cause of the haematospermia in most cases (AU)
