Hey there,

Do any of you get slight bleeding/spotting after you do exercise, especially weights, and especially lat pulldown or anything that really engages your core?

I often get endo flareups after pilates or any stomach exercises too.

Does anybody else have something similar?

I have a bulky uterus with suspected adenomyosis (it's like a 3-month pregnant uterus) and I have mild/mod endo which has been treated but obviously they can't do anything about the adeno. I'm thinking that it's potentially anything that is hard on my uterus muscles and that it's probably not a major worry, but I don't know anybody who has adeno/endo and works out to compare with.

I've also had major bleeding after running 10Ks but that was before my lap + hysteroscopy so I don't get that now. Still get the occasional spotting using heavy weights or after it has been a while since I did weights...
