What Causes Abdominal Cramps And Vaginal Spotting When Suffering From UTI?

Hi, I was at ER yesterday and Dr. said that I have UTI, im just wondering, I have been feeling light cramping under my abdomen area(6.24.16) left side or sometime right side (last intercourse was 6.20.16), then I would have some very light spotting. then Friday I had intercourse and thats when i would have pink discharge till sunday the bleeding is not that heavy but getting there. Then monday I feel cramping under my abdomen (4-5 pain) then tuesday thats when the pain is unbearable (7-8 pain). Since Dr. said I have UTI did my UTI started just this friday? (7.1.16) thats when I started the light bleeding to heavy bleeding.

Hi,

When bleeding occurs for longer period than it is usually as in your case then there are few possible causes and most common is a hormone imbalance. PCOS is one of the causes of hormonal imbalance.

While some causes may be easy to treat, others can indicate a serious underlying condition. Whether you notice spotting or heavier bleeding in between periods, it’s important to see your doctor for testing, diagnosis, and treatment options.

Other potential other causes of bleeding between periods include a growth in the uterus or cervix, stress, change in medications, miscarriage, vaginal dryness.

Your doctor will also likely give you a physical exam, including a pelvic exam.

Diagnostic tests can help your doctor find the cause of the bleeding. Your doctor may draw blood to check hormone levels.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Iven Romic Rommstein, General Surgeon
