So not to be TMI...I occasionally bleed when I have a BM. Like not from my vag (Thank goodness!), but yep - from my bum:( I know this is internal hemorrhoids - but I have no pain so I haven't done anything about it. I haven't been super-constipated lately - I discovered these really delicious 90 calorie Fiber Choice peanut butter/chocolate brownies and they're so good! I end up eating 2 a day. So this isn't occurring lately as a result of being stopped up.

Does anyone else have bum issues? If you have internal hemorrhoids, is there a need to treat them if there's no pain?

I have an OB appt in 2 weeks. I'll ask her then, but just thought I'd ask here. Bc I just went and there was, ahem, a noticeable amount of red in the toilet. It's enough that I have to force myself to remain calm and check the "front" first to make sure it's not serious pregnancy bleeding, and then I confirm that it's definitely the "back."

I would call my Dr's office, but I probably wouldn't get a response from them in a non-emergency situation until I showed up for my appointment! Plus I am lazy. Actually it's definitely more that I am lazy.
