Vaginal Bleeding, Ultrasound Normal. Have Chronic UTI, Ovary Pain When Walking
I had a very light spot of bleeding, went to my gyne who ordered a vagianl ultrasound which came back normal. Every once in a while I see some discharge but cannot tell where it is coming from. I have worn a tampon to see if there is any internal secretion but as of now there isn t. I have chronic UTIs and not sure if the scanty discharge may be coming from the uretha. Also, I experience on occasion right ovary pain when walking....help!
Hello, I have gone through your query and understood your concern. Since a trans-vaginal ultrasound has ruled out any abnormality, ovaries as the source of the pain can be ruled out. Spotting can occur with urinary tract infection; vaginal spotting also can be seen due to the associated hormone disturbance. As you have ruled out vaginal discharge through the tampon, the most likely source of the spotting is the urethra. In the current scenario, I would ask you to see a urologist and make sure where the spotting is issuing from, since you have already seen a gynecologist. Urine culture tests also should be done. Urethroscopy may also be needed to identify a possible source of bleeding to plan further management. Hope you find this information useful. Wish you good health.
