Hi there!

Rectal bleeding is unlikely to be related to prostate enlargement, which is likely to be related to GI issues like infections, inflammations, erosions, ulcers, growths/ masses etc. It would be best to have this evaluated by a primary care physician or a gastroenterologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.
Hope his is helpful.

Take care!
