Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor to exclude a non-physiologic cause of bleeding. In the mean time you should take oral iron and multivitamin supplements to replenish the iron lost in bleeding. Wish you good health.
