Vaginal bleeding after/during sex and with a bowel movement

I have Endomertiosos and another condition called Adenomyosis. I have been plagued by the symptoms from those problems for years now. But recently I have a new symptom and I am worried. A few months ago I started bleeding vaginaly during a bowel movement which still happends often...it also happends during and after intercourse. I have been tested for STD's and everything was all negative I have even had an ultrasound done and nothing. I am waiting to get a pap done. Anyways I am sooo frusterated and have been reading alot about cervical cancer so now I am scared that I might be having symptoms of cervical cancer. But I am also thinking it may just be the endometriosis or that other thing. I did have Human Papiloma Virus years ago...no problems for about 9 years now. Can anyone give me any insight???? I have also been extremely fatigued and have alot of lower back pain. I just don't know what to do and the doctors are not taking me serious. Please help!!!!!

I also have vaginal bleeding after a bowel movement.. all very similar to your story.  This happens only a few days before my period.  I notice your post is over a year old.  Did birth control pills regulate you?  My doctor wants to put me on those too, but I've been on them in the past and they make my blood pressure to increase so I'd rather not.  I don't have anything else significant in my past medical history - I'm 31, 2 kids, no endometriosis etc.
I'd be really interested in hearing follow up on your story.

I to have the same bleeding after sex and somtimes during a bowel movement.  I thought it was bleeding between periods, so I went to the doctor,  I also was put on birth control pills, had an pelvic ultra sound as well as blood work, sad to say this did not help and my pap came back good,  I live in a very small community and my Doctor actually was angry when I told her I no longer wished to take the birth control,  (I am 42 and my tubes have been tied,)she
basically told me to find another doctor ,  I have another appt.  in august,  unfortunately it will be at the same clinic with a different doctor.  Also, how do you get a obgyn to take a homone test.  I have asked, and both times I have been denied.

Off and on for the past two months I've been experiencing bright red bleeding vaginally with bowel movements as well - not sex though.   Getting really scared and going to make a doctor's appointment tomorrow.  Had normal pap in July but didn't mention the problem then because I thought it had stopped.  But I was wrong - it started again yesterday. I'm sure they won't be able to let me know what's going on without having lots of tests, but I'll let you what happens for those of you who are experiencing similar problems.

I am very anxious to hear what you found out.  I am experiencing the exact same thing...only with bowel movements, not sex, and no other symptoms.  I am worrying myself to death.  Hope your news was good.

I, too, have had vaginal bleeding after bowel movements.  I am 50 years old and this has been going on for many years.  The doctor's comment was "Hmmmmm".  My bleeding was occurring mid-cycle, for two or three days.  Recently, I have begun having a smaller amount of rectal bleeding in addition to the vaginal bleeding.  This month, it occurred a week before my period and not mid-cycle.  I am on the pill already, so that didn't help me with this problem.  I am so glad to see I am not alone.  With my doctor's reaction, I thought I was the only one with this problem.  The good news is that I have had this for many years and I have had no other problems.  I'm pretty sure it's not something to worry about or I would have had more problems.  Hang in there.
