I am 40 years old. I had my tubes tied cut and cauterized in 2010. Before Christmas my stomach was bloated. I had been maybe eating more, but it was wellrounded and pretty firm. I got asked several times if I was pregnant and I had also had a flare up of eczema on insides of my elbows, back of my knees and on the underwear lines of my pelvis. I also felt hungry. I may have been playing into the hype and online literature. I took a test 12/24. It was negative. I got my period on the 25th. Last day would be the first. My stomach went down but is now bloated again a week later and I have had pinkish blood the day after intercourse. Is this most likely residual blood or a hormonal imbalance? I do not have a dry vagina or hot flashes yet, so I dont think it is a pre menopausal symptom.
