Q: Hematuria cause ?

hello

i need a little help in figuring out what this is that i have

i am a 20 year old female...who has both microscopic and visible hematuria in urine...the doctors have done CT scans and x-rays and can't find a single thing ...they ruled out kidney stones and i don't have an infection because they did cultures and found nothing

so right now i am kind of out of ideas of what might be causing this.

any help given would be greatly appreciated!

again thanks for all the help! Smile

There are other causes for blood in urine, despite kidney stones and uti's, like blood clotting disorder, sickle cell anemia, diabetes, hypertension, kidney inflammation, kidney or bladder tumor, side effect of certain drugs, endometriosis of the bladder, interstitial cystitis, and due to strenuous physical activity.
