I wonder if the bleeding between my periods could be due to this uterine fibroid, or perhaps endometriosis?

Question

Hello, I have had bleeding and clots for 5 days, but I am not in my week and I have been taking the pill for 5 years, without ever having had this type of problem. A small fibroma (a few millimeters) was detected in me a year ago during an ultrasound.

Hello, thank you for your question! Yes, uterine fibroids can cause bleeding in some people outside of the menstrual period However, the bleeding can also be due to stress, fatigue, illness (or vaccination). In these cases, it usually goes away on its own. I hope I've been helpful and I'm available if you have any other questions! Tom Samaha, pharmacist
