A member asked:
How serious is bloody stool as a side effect from pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on cause: Many pregnant women have hemorrhoids that may produce blood stool and may resolve after delivery. However, any bleeding in the stools is a serious issue, including hemorrhoids, the later can cause enough blood loss to make a person anemic. It would be prudent to see your doctor, which you should be doing as part of antenatal care.
