What causes non-menstrual vaginal bleeding when going to the toilet?

Generally speaking, vaginal bleeding only occurs during menstruation. If vaginal bleeding occurs during non-menstrual periods, it may be a headache. When encountering such a situation, you will definitely worry whether something is wrong. Why is there blood in the vagina for no reason? You may have all kinds of random thoughts in your mind, and you must be eager to know what is going on. Let’s take a look below.

1. Functional uterine bleeding is abbreviated as functional uterine bleeding. This disease is very common in clinical practice, mainly caused by abnormal neuroendocrine function regulating reproduction. Its manifestations are usually irregular menstrual cycles, excessive menstrual flow, prolonged menstruation or irregular bleeding.

2. Vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse is called contact bleeding, which is often related to gynecological diseases such as vaginitis, cervical erosion, cervical polyps, early cervical cancer, submucosal myoma, etc. Going to a gynecologist as soon as possible is the only option.

3. If menstruation is delayed for 7-10 days before bleeding occurs, do not think that it is definitely late. You should pay attention to whether the amount, color, and duration of bleeding are the same as normal menstruation. If the menstrual blood is sometimes more and sometimes less, and is continuous, and is accompanied by abdominal pain, you should pay attention to the possibility of ectopic pregnancy or threatened abortion; if the bleeding is more than usual, lasts longer, and dysmenorrhea is obvious, it is more common in uterine fibroids or endometriosis, and it is necessary to seek medical attention in time.

4. Some women may experience vaginal bleeding after having unprotected sex because they take emergency contraceptive pills. The impact of emergency contraceptive pills on menstruation is mainly manifested in changes in the menstrual cycle. It may be early or late, especially repeated users can cause menstrual disorders and continuous bleeding.

5. If a woman who has had a hydatidiform mole experiences persistent vaginal bleeding again within two years after regular treatment, it may be an early symptom of a malignant hydatidiform mole and she should see a doctor immediately.

6. Generally, vaginal bleeding will stop about 3-7 days after an abortion or miscarriage. In very few people, bleeding may be prolonged due to physical weakness, fatigue, etc., but this needs to be judged by a doctor.

Through the above understanding, you can make a preliminary judgment based on your recent situation and observe the amount of bleeding yourself. If the amount of bleeding is small, if you are still worried, it is best to go to the hospital for examination. If the amount of bleeding is heavy, it is best to go to the hospital for examination in time to avoid any bad accidents.
