Nose Bleeds
Mine does this too but usually only in the winter months when the weather is dry. Never fails, every morning when I get out of the shower... I've never been to the doctor over it only because I know it must be weak veins and I don't want to have them coterize it. I'd rather live with the bleeding!

Coterization
I had severe nose bleed's daily when I was about 15 years old. Sometimes it would gush for hours and it almost led me to the hospital a few times. After seeing an ear, nose, and throat specialist he decided to coterize. I didn't really know what was coming but before I knew it he was sticking something sharp up my nose to cause the bleeding to start and the rest I remember was just a lot of pain and blood and the Dr. Getting very irritated because I wasn't sitting still enough. You try to sit still while blood is running down your face and into your mouth. (i even spit a little on the Dr.....Grosss!) anyhow, needless to say this was a painfull and somewhat traumatic experience. However it have been almost a decade and I have never had a single nose bleed since then. So, if your nose bleeds are significantly getting in the way of your life you may want to consider coterization. I guess you just have to way the pros and cons.
