You have to have your blood count checked as soon as possible because of the amount of bleeding. Hormone therapy may be used to stop or slow down the vaginal bleeding but the most worrisome is the rectal bleeding. It still may be related to hemorrhoids even though you had and exam shortly ago. I would suggest getting bock to your doctor to let him know and at least get your blood count checked. He may be willing to prescribe hormones and recheck the rectum or he may want to refer you. You may need a sigmoid to look at the rectum and colon. The uterine bleeding will also need some work-up unless it goes away with one or two cycles of hormone suppression. The doctor may want to do a pelvic ultrasound but if your exam is normal, that could be put off until the rectum and colon are evaluated.

]]> Comment on UTI symptoms after period cycle. What could this mean? by utiresource http://www.utiresource.com/uti-symptoms-after-period-cycle-what-could-this-mean/comment-page-1/#comment-547 utiresource Sat, 30 Oct 2010 07:43:43 +0000 http://www.utiresource.com/?p=25#comment-547 First of all drink a lot of water and some cranberry juice for the week on/during/after your cycle you know a day or so before the days of and a day or so after. dont let yourself get dry during intimacy. always urinate after sex to flush out any bacteria. uti's are caused by bacteria so somehow your getting bacteria where it shouldn't be. if you use pads change them more frequently and buy some of those feminine wipes to clean yourself between changing it. shower daily especially during cycle try using a feminine wash or maybe even an antibacterial soap. feminine wash is hypoallergenic and more suitable for the more sensitive area. maybe even an extra shower during that time of the month. also always be sure to properly clean any "novelties" that you might use. don't take a bath during this time showers only. this is a little personal but always wipe yourself front to back so you aren't pulling the nasty all around. good luck hope i helped a little at least.
