See below: You have experienced an intermittent microscopic hematuria. If you have had an isolated hematuria ( without proteinuria), benign familial hematuria, hypercalciuria, and Alport syndrome are top on the list of possible causes. I would recommend to get a referral to a nephrologist to find out definite diagnosis in a timely manner.
