A member asked:

Vaginal bleeding after every bowel movement, what could cause this? i had a cervical polyp removed 3 years ago if that's relevant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hemorrhoids: Hemorrhoids are dilated rectal veins in the anal canal that can bleed every time there is a passage of stool. As they worsen, the hemorrhoids can prolapse outside of the anus. See a MD for assessment and Rx.
