Sorry to ask but just feeling a little confused and worried. I have endo and suspected adeno. I am having a hystorectomy shortly, but just recently I have passed quiet a bit of fresh blood when I have been for a poo. I have mild endo on the bowel but it wasn't expressed as serious. I have had very small traces of fresh blood before but nothing like this. I am not in any extra pain, maybe just more fatigue if anything but I do work full time shifts including nights so put my tiredness down to that. Has anyone else experienced this?? I don't really want to contact my consultant as I know he will bring my op forward which I am trying to avoid, as this will be my fourth op in 18months and it's taken it's toll on me x

Well. It could be more endo has built up, or gotten bigger and that's why there is more blood. It could be something with your stomach (very unlikely though). And finally it could be hemorrhoids. If you have had some endo in/on the bowel, I am thinking it has grown a bit bigger and therefor has let more blood go. When they do your hysterectomy, can they fix your bowel spot(s) as well?
I am unsure but might be worth mentioning it to my consultant before the op. Feeling a little more reassured though. Thank you for your responses. Endo messes up your body so much I never know when to be concerned or just to ignore and get on with it
I had the same thing. I had bright red blood when I did a poo and quiet a lot. I was worried because it was just after my lap. I was adviced to go to the hospital and they said I had internal haemorrhoids which bled because I was constipated. Another glamourous exploration of my body and lovely ailment! They said to only worry if blood is not brown because this is from futher up the digestion all track and could be an internal bleed. If your worried still get it checked out xxx
