Pap smear and colposcopy needed.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I think there is a problem which causes blood discharge from vagina. Having a bowel movement and straining can push the blood and make it come out. It can be black blood due to blood remaining in vagina for longer.
I think you should get evaluated doing a pap smear and colposcopy. I suppose it can be something wrong with colum uteri possible dysplasia.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
