What Causes Pain During Urination And Spotting In Pregnancy?
Urinary tract infection.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
It looks like you are suffering from a urinary tract infection which is quite common considering your age.
I would advice you to do the following
1. Seek medical attention as soon as possible for a urine routine and culture along with complete blood count and an ultrasound scan of the renal system.
2. You will have to be put on antibiotics. Most commonly a Fluroquinolone like Tab Levofloxacin for 14 days followed by a repeat urine routine.
3. If the urine grows an organism the antibiotic can be changed to what that organism is sensitive to.
4. Drink plenty of water
5. Use protection during intercourse and your partner should undergo a urine routine as well.
The spotting can be due to hormonal changes or related to the infection. This will also subside after antibiotic treatment.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
The infection can be transferred to you by your partner or due to renal or a urinary tract calculus which is lodged in the tract somewhere and due to the mucosal injury it is causing, slight bleeding.
This infection causes pain and irritation of the urethra causing a sensation of full bladder. That is why you need to urinate frequently but a small amount of urine comes out.
Hope my answer is helpful.
