Bleeding when having a bowel movement is common with ulcerative colitis when you are harving a flare. You should get in touch with your doctor so he can possibly put you on steroids and/or up your other meds to get the flare under control. They may look at putting you on iron piills as well to ensure you don't become anemic.

Hi, my advice would be to go and have colonoscopy,it doesnt hurt it takes about half hr,my friends all had and it done all young ages my brother is 32 yrs old he had one thank god he went because thay found a polup and they removed it and went home and he was fine im going my self i just turned 40i want to call on friday to make the appointment.If you get this test done you feel alot better knowing nothing is there and so if they find a polup they cut it out its always good to be safe than always thinking what is wrong.please dont worry ill be here for youkeep me updated ok ALWAYAWITHME
