Dr. Shannahan,
No, I had not had intercourse even recently. Had recently had a yeast
infection where I had to use applicator to insert meds. (perscribed by
Dr.) but that was over days before bleeding started. I stand all day at
work and lift (avoid anything toooo heavy) it can get a bit strenuous at
times. could that have caused it?
