Red Discharge, Stomach Pain, Painful Urination. Taking Birth Control. What Is It Related To?
hello I have a question. I am a 20 year old female and when I went pee a little bit ago I wiped and there was some dark reddish brownish blood on the toilet paper. there was none in the toilet only when I wiped there was also blood when I wiped my backside. not a whole lot but still some. this has happened once before months ago and again same thing when I wiped there was a little bit of blood but last time it was pinkish and it was only that one time till now. I have been peeing fine and it doesn't hurt but sometimes I do get these really bad tight shooting pains in my stomach area and when that pain occurs its also sometimes on my side as well as my stomach that usually happen after I eat something and when that pain occurs it makes me feel like I have to flatulate. then the pain will go away then come back one minute then go away that's happened for a very long time. so Idk if that pain and this is related I don't know but I would really like to know ur opinion please. also I just ended my period like a week ago and I take birth control and so its always ontime.

Hello,
thanks for using health care magic
I want to believe you have two separate problems;
an abdominal problem related to food and
the problem of finding reddish discharge/blood when you wipe.
For the abdominal problem, you might be suffering from a peptic ulcer or dyspepsia since you said the pains is related to feeding. Am sure not all food types do affect you or cause you the pain. It would be important to identify those food that cause you this pain and avoid them together with spicy food, pepper, gassy drinks, drugs such as aspirin, ibuprofen etc. But more importantly, you should consider seeing a gastro-enterologist
As for the second issue, you need to be investigated for probable genital tract infections by being checked by a gynecologist. It is also possible that what you are experiencing is just normal since you just ended your menses and on birth control pills.
Hope this helps you.
Best regards
Dr Achuo
