I was referred to undergo a cystoscopy several months back is performed to investigate the blood in my urine. It is a procedure where a doctor examines the urethra and bladder using a thin, tube-like instrument called a cystoscope. It is equipped with a light and camera, which allows for direct visual inspection of these areas, helping in the diagnosis of different urinary tract conditions. Has anyone else experienced this procedure?

Just let the internal hemorrhage heal by itself. All these probing and digging will Only cause more microbes to enter your body.
Of course, chances are, if it's bleeding, it's not from your bladder but your balls due to vigorous exercise.
If it doesn't stop then you worry.

The cystoscopy cleared me of bladder cancer and other bladder or urethral abnormalities which has given me peace of mind. The problem is that the haematuria still presents itself from time to time when I try to pee while straining to pass motion, owing to constipation.

Did you had 2 other diagnostics done
1. A ctscan of lut to rule out kidney stones
2. A urine cytology to rule of cancer

Unlikely a pass motion strain can cause haematuria, according to my prof.
But during the time when I had haematuria, I did some pelvic exercises to strengthen my bladder, then I ended up with haematuria. But my prof told me the exercises wouldn't cause it.
So I still find it doubtful.
I do have a small kidney stone identifed during the ctscan of the lut.
But the prof told me more likely I have already passed out the stone, as the few subsequent xray didn't showed the stone.
So endup I doesn't know what caused the haematuria.
 
Maybe you need to see him about your “straining to pass motion, owing to constipation.”…..

Bloody hell. More serious than I thought.
