Novato, CA

I have been having bowel symptoms for years, but the last 6 months have been especially bad. This month I have had rectal bleeding that came at the same time as my period. No hemoriods or tear, also the blood is in my stool even when it not where I wipe. So I know it’s coming from my bowel. Anyone else who has experienced this would help calm my nerves.

I’ve had minor bleeding before. Make sure you see a medical provider though, rectal bleeding should always be evaluated.

I had a hysterectomy and endo removal on July 30. I haven’t had any rectal bleeding since the surgery. I’m not sure where exactly the endo was. I have a follow up appointment in September so I guess I will find out then.

I have hemorrhoids so that is where mine come from

I had this along with horrendous pain. I had an endoscopy (doesn't go in as far in as a colonoscopy!) and they saw nothing apart from a few small hemoriods that weren't visible to me as they were further up. I think it's just yet another symtom endo gives us! But maybe request the test anyway for your peace of mind to make sure its nothing else? If you do, make sure you request the gas and air as it's a tad uncomfortable lol... but I enjoyed being high off the gas and air so it wasn't too bad haha 😊 good luck xx
