It could : However most of the times is due to benign causes, such as hemorrhoids or anal fissure. Talk to your doc if bleeding persists or having new symptoms.

Could be: See your doctor for an evaluation. Even a benign issue like hemorrhoids can cause enough blood loss to make you anemic. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
