Had litho yest to break up kidney stones. started my period morn of surgery.concerned about bleeding, heavy flow. can kidneys cause blood like period?

Likely unrelated: Any bleeding from your lithotripsy would be from your kidneys, end up in your bladder and through your urethra in the urine. This is completely separate from your menses, which is the lining of your uterus exiting your body via your vagina.
