What are the reasons for vaginal bleeding after a bowel movement?

Patient's question:

After 5 or 6 days postpartum, my lochia had stopped, but then it returned after about ten days. After that, it came and went intermittently. By the time I reached the full moon, except when it was almost stopping, I had a bowel movement and it broke open again. A few days later, when the breakdown was almost over, I had another bowel movement and bright red blood came out. What is the reason for vaginal bleeding after a bowel movement?

Doctor's answer:

Go to the gynecology department for a thorough examination to check the blood test. If it is in the mid-cycle, there may be a very small amount of vaginal tearing, which is most likely ovulation bleeding, a normal physiological phenomenon, and generally does not require treatment. If it is not ovulation bleeding, it may be considered as possible conditions such as vaginitis, cervical erosion, cervical polyps, endometritis, etc. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital's gynecology department for relevant examinations, identify the cause, and then provide symptomatic treatment. Gynecological patients can, while understanding symptomatic treatment, use dietary therapy as a complementary treatment in daily life. It is essential to avoid being overly hungry or full during daily dietary habits and never overeat or binge eat.
