Hello Mrs. Höfel,
I am currently in the 29th week of pregnancy.
Now for the first time during pregnancy I had bright red blood on the toilet paper after a bowel movement. After the first wiping, nothing was to be seen, the blood was only visible behind.
A few years ago I had problems with hemorrhoids.
Should I go straight to the doctor on Monday or should I watch it first? I try to drink a lot, but the stool is almost always hard.
Thank you very much for your feedback!
Many greetings,
Rosalie

Answer:
Blood on toilet paper after defecation
Dear Rosalie,
not only drink a lot, also eat high-fiber foods – both together help.
No, you don’t need to see a doctor straight away because of the hemorrhoids.
best regards
Martina Höfel
