Bleeding when i defecate, whether it's hard or soft almost every time i go, what could be the reason? i've tried eating more fiber but it still happen

Why rectal bleeding: Rectal bleeding in a 26 yr. Old female would be most likely due to hemorrhoids or an anal fissure. A less likely possibility would be inflammatory bowel disease. See your doctor for an examination to determine the cause.
