It's important to see your doctor for a coloscopy. This is the best way to have identification of any polyps found in the colon and they are removed before they become cancerous. See the patient information here on the forum for more information.
I have colonscopy every 3 years due to polyp development .The polyps are removed before they reach the opposite side of the colon during colonscopy. This is preventative measures against any become cancerous. It is usually done when polyps are discovered thru first coloscopy and then if no polyps are found then every 8-10 years coloscopy is recommended. If they are found it takes 3-5 years to reach the opposite side of the colon in most cases. It's best to check with your doctor to see if you have the gene for colon cancer as they can determine a schedule for tests.
See eve your doctor immediately if you have any symptoms .... Best to be safe and be accertive with our healthcare.

If you haven’t seen a doctor I would recommend that you see one especially since you have had bleeding. Tests will rule in/out possible causes.
