period coming out tush

Sounds like you still have a fistula.

ok, I get that there is still a connection, but do these connections usually flow only one way? Before I only had mucous from my intestines, and now I have blood from my vagina. Has anyone had both at the same time or with the same tract. I know I don't want either but I would rather have the blood out my tush during my period. Thinking I could go on the pill and stop the blood flow. I also think that the constant mucous is not good for healing. What do you think, or any experiences? Actually, has anyone had both, mucous from vagina and blood from tush with same connection?

Dawn58, I can't say I've had experience with what you're going through, however, I have total and complete faith in Dr. Remzi and CC.

Hang in there and know we're cheering you on. My prayers are with you. Stay STRONG and keep us posted on your progress!

I really have no idea if things flow both ways or not. I would think that it was possible, unless one end was narrower than the other. Typically, it flows from high pressure to low pressure. Hormone replacement to reduce or stop your periods makes sense. I've never had a fistula, so I don't have any personal experience to share.
