I have been extremely stressed out this past few months. First off I am 36 years old and have not had any children. I started having bleeding between periods over the past year which has gradually gotten worse. I figured it was stress. I also have had frequent bouts of constipation. Last month I strained really hard and the day after I started having a weird feeling in my vagina. It feels like I have torn a muscle down there. Sometimes my symptoms are itchy and swollen feeling around my vagina. Other times I feel like I have discharge stuck in there that won't come out or it feels like I am going to leak all the time. Just today I started having very dark almost black discharge. I have been on metoprolol for my heart for a year now and I just started taking a probiotic to help with constipation about a week ago. I have a huge fear of going to the gynocologist but know that I really need to go. I have a huge fear I have something seriously wrong. I keep looking up what it could be. My husband is very frustrated with me.
