What Is The Difference Between Menstrual Bleeding And Vaginal Bleeding?

I am 35 years old and i have a history of PCOS for more than 10 years. I am single and not sexually active. I had a paps smear 2 weeks ago and i was told that i have severe vaginal discharge. The OB recommended that i take albothyl 6 suppositories to be inserted every other day and noted that it was cervicitis. Last June, i took my hormonal pills and had my menses that started July4 and it went on for 3 days. Going back to my albothyl use, i took it in the evening of Aug6. The following morning, i was surpised that i bled... I dont know though if this menstrual bleeding or side effect of taking albothyl. Please do note though that i never have menses if i dont take the pills. My question is, how do i know if this is menstruation or vaginal bleeding already?
