I too have spotting after a BM (not after sex though), just had a normal
ultrasound last week and will go for a lap soon to look for endo. Have
either of you learned anything new about the vaginal bleeding after BMs?
Feel free to write me at slwolf8@home.com, I am so interested in
figuring that one out!!!
