Catamenial epistaxis: It seems more than coincidental that symptoms wd return at the same point in ur cycle. Endometriosis (uterine tissue found outside the uterus) is common & usually causes pelvic/abdominal pain or rectal bleeding but uncommon nasal endometriosis can cause nosebleeds as well. (Being uterine, it responds to hormones like the uterus does). http://www.jmig.org/article/S1553-4650%2812%2900108-2/abstract
