What Causes Vaginal Bleeding While Suffering From An Ovarian Cyst?
Hi, I am 37 and been on norethisterone tablets the last 4 years to stop my period due to widespread endometriosis. I had an op 4 months ago to remove my gall bladder and a few post op problems since. One thing that has been picked up is a strange cyst on my right overy which needs to be re scanned in 6 weeks to see if it is changing. That is my history - the reason I am writing to you is I am having vaginal bleeding every time I have a bowel movement which at the moment is around every 10+ days since I have no appetite... could this be related to any of my above history or is there a risk I have a problem with my cervix? I d be greatful for any advice. Many thanks :-)

Hello,
There may be an endometriotic deposit in cervix or upper vagina which is causing bleed precipitated by bowel movement. Please undergo ultrasound pelvis to find exact cause.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
