What Causes Lower Abdominal Pain And Blood In Stools?
I have a few problems.
I am a 24 year old mother of two. I have been on the birth control called implanon for a little over a year. About 6 months ago my urine has a tendency to smell like metal. I bleed abnormally, which i understand can be a side affect from the birth control, but the bleeding is heavy, with clotting, which i understand is not normal. I was recently put on a low hormonal birth control pill to try to lessen the bleeding if not stop it, but I have now been bleeding for a month. I just recently noticed bright red blood in my stool, and lower abdomen pain. I drink mineral water, and eat mostly healthy. I am a smoker and have recently been trying to quit because they make me sluggish. I just want to know if i should see a doctor or if there is any advice i can get.
I have a couple other medical issues, which may help or be irrelevant.
