Blood in Urine
Seeing blood in your urine can be an alarming, and it is important to determine its cause.
The presence of blood in the urine is known as haematuria, and is either visible (macroscopic) or non-visible (microscopic) to the naked eye. Macroscopic haematuria produces pink, red or brown coloured urine, and the bleeding is usually painless. Microscopic haematuria is detected through a urine dipstick or microscopy test, and may be picked up during a regular health screening.
There are many causes of haematuria, but is it never normal. While in many instances the cause is harmless, blood in your urine can indicate a more serious disorder. Further investigations may be required to exclude a serious cause for the bleeding, like bladder cancer.
At URODOC, our team is highly experienced in the investigation and management of haematuria. If required, a flexible cystoscopy can be performed in our on site procedure room.
