What’s going on? I’ve got blood in my urine, but I’m not on my period.



A small amount of blood on a piece of paper when you urinate but do not have your period is a sign of abnormal bleeding from the uterus or vagina.

If you don’t have your period when it’s due, but there is a small amount of blood when you wipe it with paper, then there is abnormal bleeding from the uterus or vagina. In this case, you first need to consider whether you are pregnant or not. In some patients, menopause is not obvious in the early stages of pregnancy, and there may be vaginal bleeding after menopause, which is usually due to low hormone levels in the early stages of pregnancy or abnormal bleeding caused by ectopic pregnancy.

If the time for menstruation has passed but menstruation is delayed, and the possibility of pregnancy has been ruled out, it is necessary to know the condition of the endometrium and ovarian function, and to check whether there are any abnormalities in other internal reproductive organs. Diseases such as vaginitis, cervicitis, and endometrial inflammation may cause abnormal bleeding.

If the patient often occurs this situation must be taken seriously, it is recommended that the patient as soon as possible to the hospital to identify the cause of the disease and take timely treatment or adjustment.
