Do I have endometreosis????
 
The past five months or so I get my period. The next day I start passing blood through my bowel as well. This first couple of months I just figured I was leaking around my pad. The pain in my right abdomen is awful. Most times it is a level 15? I had started my period one night, the pain was awful and then I started having major bloody stools with in 24 hrs. I was in hospital for this and had many tests. My final test is next week. It is a barium enema The drs have run so many tests it's not funny. No one can find anything. There has to be a reason that vaginal blood is crossing over into my bowel but how and where. Where is all this pain coming from as well. Before I had two more periods to prove what was going on, my dr said it might just be a new chronic pain I might have to live with.? But the periods kept coming that proved the pass over of blood.?

Do anyone out there experience this or knows someone that has experienced this?????? I'm 47 and I still get my period every 28 days. Who knows when I'll hit menopause and the periods will stop. Will the abd pain stop then to?

I searched "blood from rectum during period"

maybe you can find something in those links to discuss with your doctors..

If you have endometriosis or even that much pain, see a gyne-oncologist. There is no sense in suffering that bad.
The endometriosis can wrap around other organs and do damage - so take care of it now, do not wait until menopause. I am only 45 but I had a full hyst a couple of years ago due to endometriosis - mine was all over and they had to work on me for hours.
Get yourself to a doctor before it gets into your other organs.

You say you've had many tests, just wondering what one's for the bowel?
Colonoscopy ? Bowel series ? Sigmoidoscopy? there are so many different tests so you still might have some options..

I too had endo which has disappeared for now and gives me no trouble, but I suffered awful pain as you describe through the bowel when I did have it, best to make an appointment with a Gyneoncologist if you haven't seen one yet

Hope you feel better soon
