Why I am having bloody discharge. 16- not pregnant and sexually active?
There are many possible causes for bloody discharge in a sexually active female who is not pregnant. Some of the most common causes include:
* Menstrual irregularities: This is the most common cause of bloody discharge in young women. Menstrual irregularities can be caused by a number of factors, such as stress, diet, exercise, and hormonal imbalances.
* Implantation bleeding: This is bleeding that occurs when a fertilized egg implants in the lining of the uterus. Implantation bleeding typically occurs about 10-14 days after conception.
* Ovulation bleeding: This is bleeding that occurs when an egg is released from the ovary. Ovulation bleeding typically occurs about 14 days before a woman's period is due.
* Sexually transmitted infections (STIs): Some STIs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, can cause bloody discharge.
* Cervical ectropion: This is a condition in which the cells of the cervix extend onto the outside of the cervix. Cervical ectropion can cause bloody discharge, especially after intercourse.
* Trauma to the cervix: This can be caused by a number of factors, such as a pelvic exam, an abortion, or a childbirth.
* Cancer: In rare cases, bloody discharge can be a sign of cancer of the cervix, uterus, or vagina.
If you are experiencing bloody discharge and you are not pregnant, it is important to see a doctor to determine the cause. Your doctor will likely perform a pelvic exam and order some tests, such as a Pap smear and a blood test. Treatment will depend on the cause of the bleeding.
