Do I have an internal bleeding?

[Anonymous]

I started my period 2 days ago, pretty late at night. Everything is fine, I have cramps etc (the usual stuff). I'm someone who eats quite healthy, I always start my day by eating fruit, I usually like mango's, watermelon and blueberries. Now here's the disgusting part, ever since this morning my poop has had this black/grey/blue ish color... It's not even a lot, more like diarrhea consistency. I've looked it up and there are so many things that show up, it kinda freaked me out... I've read that eating too many blueberries can cause this, but I don't think I eat that many blueberries? I eat like 1 little box of blueberries in the morning with the rest of my fruit, been doing that for like weeks and never had any problems. Does this mean I'm having an internal bleeding or is it just coincidence and the combination of being on my period? I'm super worried... :/

Eating a lot of fruit can make this happen or you could have caught a bug. Anything that is high in fibre can make you need to go to the toilet a lot. Blueberries maybe making it appear darker because of the colour of the blueberries. I wouldn't worry too much but if it stays like this for a few days i would go to a doctor just to be safe.

its the blueberries. you need to eat more than fruit. switch it up if you have to with some granola and yoghurt. it won't add anything weight wise if you are dieting but you need the fibre in your system :)

I'm no expert nor am I a girl but I am anemic. Periods can trigger anemia so it is much more common in men than women. When you lose blood it changes the balance of iron in your blood which causes lots of other changes such as drowsiness and shortness of breath but among those things it can affect the color of your feces.

Sounds to me like it's just what your eating. I honestly wouldn't worry. I was told if your bleeding internally that your poop will be black. And pls don't ever read anything online. It's never accurate and you only scare the shit out of yourself.
