Symptoms Of UTI After Having Sex During Periods, Pain In Lower Abdomen, Bloody Stools. Any Suggestions?

Hello. I am a 20 year old sexually active female. Recently, I have tried sexual intercourse during my period, and I think I am suffering the consequences. I am in my last days of my period but I am experiencing UTI symptoms. I am frequently going to the bathroom, and after I void, I still feel the need to urinate again.. especially in my clitoris region. I also experienced some pain in my lower abdomen on the right side near my vagina. During this week of my period I have been constipated, and now my stool is regular but there is BLOOD in it!! Also, I am not experiencing blood in my urine but I am spotting. e

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Urinary tract infections are common during periods as PH changes are favorable for infection. Your symptoms are suggestive of UTI. Get urine test done for confirmation of condition and swab test from vagina for genital tract infection.

Need antibiotics for treatment, take lot of fluid which help to flush out organism from tract.

Blood in stool could be due to hemorrhoids(painless) or fissure (painful) as you were constipated.
Stool softener help to reduce pressure over rectal veins and reduces bleeding. If it continues consult doctor for examination.

Hope this helps you.

Regards
