Suggest Treatment For Abdominal Pain And Knot In Belly Button

I just had my period starting on the 31st of July and ending on the 6th of August... My doctor is starting me on the Creighton Method so I am off my birth control also. I started having abdominal pains and I feel a knot near my belly button. On top of that I am bleeding again ten days after my last period and this blood is gritty and very dark. Is any of this normal should I talk to my doctor?

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
Abdominal pain and knot near belly button may not be related to the menstrual or hormonal problems.
This can be due to a mass / lymph nodes or intestinal problems.

I would advise you to talk to your Doctor about this, elucidate on bowel and bladder habits, any distension / bloating and reference of pain to the back and so on .
-Get a CT^ scan of the whole abdomen including the whole pelvis to rule out problems related to the uterus, Fallopian tubes and ovaries, pelvic inflammatory disease - PID, appendicitis and lymph nodes or mass in the abdomen.
A proper diagnosis can be of help to get a proper plan of treatment .
