coming from the back of my body not my
cliterois, im concerned since then i have
pooped twice and no signs of blood... help
also i have been very stressed can this
have anything to do with it?
IT seems from your descriptions that
you've experienced bleeding from the anus
(rectorrhagia). The most common reason for
rectorrhagia is hemorrhoids... but
anal-rectal fissures, colon tumors and
inflammations (colitis) can also cause
blood in the stool. You must visit a
doctor for a physical examination and to
request an occult blood test first.
Additional procedures like an abdominal
ultrasound scan and a colonoscopy can be
done later if necessary.
You can also take a home pregnancy test to
confirm or exclude pregnancy as a reason
for the lack of menstruation (amenorrhea).
