Yes, possible: Above scenario appears consistent with a passed stone, however you are left with the 2 conditions that contributed, taking a blood thinner and the propensity of forming stones and the risk for another such episode in the future remains high. Make sure all your treating docs are aware of recent events.

Question 8

is it normal to have blood in your urine off your period?

Accepted Answer

Blood in urine: Blood is not normally found in urine. If there is blood in the urine ; nothing else abnormal, then blood is entering your urine in some way. Are there symptoms like burning with urine, flank pain, recent infection, etc?  See your doctor for further follow up as this needs to be looked at in a clinical context to be sure everything is good.

Question 9

can a upcoming period cause small trace of blood in urine.

Accepted Answer

Yes: The traces of blood in the urine is not un -common. Particularly near the period and after the period visually stops. Endometrial shedding is a gradual phenomenon. Particularly endometriosis, specks oy endometriosis in the bladder and other harmonal events which affect the endometrium can cause blood in the urine before the visual signs of mensturation appear.

Question 10

is it possible not to have traces of blood in urine in a urine test 2days before a period?

: It’s possible!  Use wipes to clean around the urethra before giving the sample, and give a “mid-stream” specimen. This will avoid vaginal contamination of the urine as it exits the urethra.
