Why do I bleed after walking?

Hi, I’m just hoping someone can help me! I’m 19 years old and have been suffering with Endometriosis for 10 years now and am currently using a wheelchair (3rd time in 7 years) as I struggle to walk due to the pain etc. For the past 5 months I’ve been having Prostap injections to help, whilst waiting for another laparoscopy, and the last 2 jabs have started to help me begin to walk short distances again! I have had no periods since my first injection. I returned to work on Wednesday after being off since February, due to the wheelchair, and after an hour of work I started to have pain and began to bleed, only lightly. It seems to be that every time I walk further than 300m or after an hour working I bleed? Is this normal with this condition? Thank you.

So sad to read you are like this at such a young age. I really feel for you. I don't know the answer to your question. However, I would imagine anything you do to cause strain on your fragile body could cause the bleeding to start.

I've always found pushing myself just makes things worse. Hope this helps! xx
