Vaginal bleeding after/during sex and with a bowel movement
I have Endomertiosos and another condition called Adenomyosis. I have been plagued by the symptoms from those problems for years now. But recently I have a new symptom and I am worried. A few months ago I started bleeding vaginaly during a bowel movement which still happends often...it also happends during and after intercourse. I have been tested for STD's and everything was all negative I have even had an ultrasound done and nothing. I am waiting to get a pap done. Anyways I am sooo frusterated and have been reading alot about cervical cancer so now I am scared that I might be having symptoms of cervical cancer. But I am also thinking it may just be the endometriosis or that other thing. I did have Human Papiloma Virus years ago...no problems for about 9 years now. Can anyone give me any insight???? I have also been extremely fatigued and have alot of lower back pain. I just don't know what to do and the doctors are not taking me serious. Please help!!!!!
Has a CT of your abdomen ever revealed an enlarged appendix?

who me? No
I am so glad I found this thread!!!! My periods have always been consistent, every 30 days and it would last about 3 days with the 1st day being the most heaviest with some cramping. but over the past year or so ive noticed more cramping. and the past few months the bleeding has gotten heavier. I also always have spotting about 2 weeks before my period comes. this past month though I had bright red blood a few days before period was due - so I thought it was early but then it stopped. then my period came and my cramps were unbearable for over 24 hours. everything calmed down then about a week and a half later I had sex with my husband and had a lot of bleeding. it was bad. everything I found was making me think cervical cancer. but reading this thread gives me hope that its something not as serious. I have an apt for weds. praying it goes well. im still a nervous wreck though and just so scared. I am 40 yrs old and have 2 children.
After ultrasounds and blood tests, I think we have figured out that I have Rectocele, basically a rectal prolapse. It can cause vaginal bleeding. I also think I have Cytocele, which is a bladder prolapse. Hopefully all of you find what is wrong. Just keep on keeping on until someone listens!

I wrote on that thread what is below but after reading this, I feel like I should throw in some more information. I had PID when I was 18, then also had a miscarriage and a D&C. When I was 19 I got a pos HPV at my pap. They did a cone biopsy on my cervix and LEEP surgery and I never had another pos test. I had my first child at 22 and my second at 31. I also have IBS and am overweight.
I am a married 37yo with a 15yo and a 6yo. This same thing started with me a little over a year ago. About a week or so before my period, when I have a BM I bleed. Sometimes it's a lot, sometimes it's a little, but I always have dull ache cramps to go with it. I also have a tilted uterus. I was on birth control when it started, the SAME birth control I had been on since my son was born, but my obgyn said it was just breakthrough bleeding. I stopped the birth control in August of last year and it is still happening. I have read that sometimes antidepressants can cause it, but the two that I am on (Celexa and Wellbutrin) are on the 'least likely to cause those side effects' list. My grandmother, aunt, and mother all had to have hysterectomies in their late 30's and early 40's so I hope that it is nothing too bad.

I'm 39, have 2 children. After my 2nd child was born I started taking the birth control pill Cerazette. Soon after I started suffering nausea, abdominal pain and anxiety so after 3 months I stopped taking it. The symptoms eased immediately but over the next few months gradually came back. After about a year of suffering with the symptoms I went to the doctors and had a lot of tests all negative. He told me I have IBS. Now nearly 5 years later I have started experiencing vaginal bleeding after a bowel movement. Happens when bowel movements are hard and difficult to get out, about 5 days before my period is due. Doctor is not concerned. He has tested me for bowel and ovarian cancer and ruled those out. Interesting that a lot of people have mentioned IBS.
I have had the same problem,I suffer with fibromyalgia and bone pain syndrome,I was told for years that I have iIBS, but after a colonoscopy I was told I hadnt,I have noticed when I need to open my bowels I'm passing blood from my front,but it only happens when I get this severe pain in my lower back,I've had a ablation done so I no longer have periods,and haven't done since it was done.yet I still bleed when opening my bowels once the pain is there,doctors seem baffled
