I do have 2 fibroids 1cm and a cyst could that be the cause? The bleeding is 20 - 30 minutes after consumption

Answered by Dr. Shinas Hussain (7 hours later)

Brief Answer:
It may be due to fibroid only.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Fibroids and ovarian cysts can cause bleeding.
In your case even the fibroids are also very tiny and bleeding may be due to some hormonal dysfunction.
Nothing much to worry as the alcohol has got nothing to do with the bleeding.
Thanks
