Menstruation followed by bloody stools

Patient's question:

Last month, on the first day after my period, there was blood in my stool. It was fine in the middle. This month, the same thing happened after my period ended.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are many reasons for blood in the stool. First, it is necessary to identify the cause of the blood in the stool, and then treat it accordingly. It is commonly seen in conditions like hemorrhoids and anal fissures. However, apart from hemorrhoids and anal fissures, conditions such as ulcerative colitis, rectal polyps, and rectal cancer can also cause blood in the stool. Blood in the stool from hemorrhoids and anal fissures is usually bright red. It is recommended that you go to a formal colorectal specialty hospital for examination and diagnosis, and then receive treatment accordingly.
