A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unless : Unless you are bleeding profusely, have a fever or are in severe pain, a trip to the emergency room is not necessarily needed. You should give your ob/gyne doctor a call as soon as possible for an evaluation. If you are pre-menopausal, there are many causes for vaginal bleeding not related to your period such as: - iud or Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone) use - stopping or starting birth control pills containing estrogen - stress - hormone problems such as with the thyroid - injury/trauma of the vagina from intercourse or a sexually transmitted disease - uterine fibroids or polyps - cervical injury, infection or rarely, cancer - pregnancy (implantation bleeding) if you are concerned about your bleeding, give your doctor a call.
