Suggest Remedy For Blood In Urine

Posted on Mon, 12 Jan 2015

Question: Hi I am a 25, year old female. I had my period on the 7th to the 11th. Everything was clean down there, but then around the 20th, I noticed when I urinate there is someblood on the toilet paper. Sometimes there's none, sometimes theres light pink. I will also see some pink in my underwear sometimes. Its the 26th now and I still see it. Those are my only symptoms. What could it be? This has never happened before so I'm very worried... is it me ovulating? Do I have a uti?

Brief Answer:
Looks like mid cycle bleeding.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

I understand your health concerns.

It is most probably a mid cycle bleeding due to ovulation.
Chances of UTI are less if there is no pain during urination and no increased frequency.
In case it persists for another week then you should visit a gynecologist for local examination.

Hope for the best.

is there an amount of blood that should concern me? again sometimes theres none, but then theres also some times where its an amount as if I'm on my last day of my period, usually when I urinate in the morning.

Brief Answer:
maximum half a pad

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Maximum amount of bleeding that I have seen in mid cycle is half a pad soaking. So yours is a mild case only and fits in the category of ovular bleeding.
