What Causes Vaginal Bleeding Other Than Menstrual Cycle?

I m pretty sure I am not on my period but I am bleeding. I thought I was on my period so I put a tampon in but the blood was only on the string when I took it out. I looked in a mirror and saw that my vagina was red but the inside of the canal was not. I think my hymen broke but I m not positive. I have been bleeding for 2 days.

Hi,

Usually vaginal bleeding is due to either menstruation or some injury. There are other causes of vaginal bleeding also like some growth, infection or irregular menstruation or spotting in between 2 periods. I would advise you to visit a gynecologist to find out the cause of bleeding, if you are not sure of it. Please note that irregular periods do happen in many women which has a high probability in your case other than injury.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
