Why do I bleed when wear thongs?

Thongs do not cause bleeding, but certain underlying conditions can cause bleeding during or after wearing thongs. Here are some possible reasons why you might experience bleeding when wearing thongs:

1. Irritation or Abrasion: Thongs can sometimes cause irritation or abrasion to the delicate skin around the vulva and anus, especially if the material is rough or the thong is too tight. This irritation can lead to small cuts or abrasions, which can then cause bleeding.

2. Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): UTIs can cause inflammation and irritation of the urethra, leading to bleeding during or after wearing thongs. The friction caused by the thong can worsen the irritation and cause blood-tinged urine or spotting.

3. Yeast Infection: Yeast infections are common in women and can cause itching, irritation, and inflammation in the vagina and vulva. This inflammation can make the area more prone to bleeding when wearing thongs.

4. Ectopic Pregnancy: In rare cases, bleeding while wearing thongs could be a sign of an ectopic pregnancy, which is when a fertilized egg implants outside of the uterus. Ectopic pregnancies can cause vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain.

5. Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs): Certain STIs like herpes or chlamydia can cause inflammation, itching, and sores in the genital area, which may bleed when irritated by wearing thongs.

If you experience unusual or excessive bleeding while wearing thongs, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
