My partner is 7 weeks pregnant. Had an ultrasound last week and they saw a heartbeat and a sac. She had a little bleeding a few weeks ago but the dr said it was an implantation bleed. She is not bleeding now, the tests were really dark for the last few weeks and now they are getting lighter.
GI bleeding is not a disease, but a symptom of a disease. There are many possible causes of GI bleeding, including hemorrhoids, peptic ulcers, tears or inflammation in the esophagus, diverticulosis and diverticulitis, ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, colonic polyps, or cancer in the colon, stomach or esophagus.
Appointments & care. At Mayo Clinic, we take the time to listen, to find answers and to provide you the best care. Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding is a symptom of a disorder in your digestive tract. The blood often appears in stool or vomit but isn't always visible. The level of bleeding can range from mild to severe and life-threatening. Finding the cause of GI bleeding can be difficult. But sophisticated imaging technology can usually locate the problem, and minimally invasive procedures often can fix it.
