Nose bleeds caused by supplements?

So i have recently began using supplements again 2 weeks ago but this time i decided to try some new things. Couple of months ago i was just using Extreme DMZ, 100% whey protein, super pump 250 as a pre workout, and the GNC vitapak for vitamins and have never had any problems with nose bleeds. This time around i am using 1 MR and started using animal pak and have had nose bleeds several times in the past week. I have even woken up to my nose bleeding profusely, could the 1 MR or animal pack be causing the nose bleeds? Or is my body just adjusting it self to the new supplements? Has something like this ever happened to anyone?

Go to the doctor and get checked, supplements cant be your problem.

it could be a result of hypertension... do you experience headaches? how's your blood pressure? are you sensitive to stimulants?

cease use of the 1MR and see if the nosebleeds stop... if they do, you'll know the source of your problem. if they don't, you should consult with your physician.

I had a 2-3 day headache from taking one scoop of Superpump.

It was really light but it was all up in my temple and it was making me feel nauseated. It SUCKED.

I do get headaches but its not when i take 1 MR though. ive been off 1 mr for a couple of days now and i had a nose bleed today. The blood always come down on the same nostril every time i do get a nose bleed, idk if that matters though. Also i was told that it could be because of dehydration from the supplements causing them. I dont drink as much water as i should, so that theory could be quite plausible.

its probably from the extreme DMZ
just a guess but several PH/steriods cause increased blood pressure.

I frequently have nose bleeds, it could just be the you have a weaker blood vessels in your nose that can pop from over expanding so it could be a cause of heat from your workouts or possibly one of the pre-workout supplements your taking, but I haven't been able to link any of my nose bleeds to any of my supplements.

I had exactly that as a kid. my left nostril had a weaker blood vessel and we used to live in a extremely hot place. every time I took an aspirin (blood thinner) I would just start bleeding. My doctor got my vein cauterised (really painful btw) and then problem was 70% resolved.

I think I had the same thing....I had problems with both nostril's...nothing with aspirin or anything everytime something minor happend like a tiny ball hit my nose I would start to bleed like crazy I had to eventually get them taken care of...the Doc he used a item like a Q-tip and it burned really bad...did both nostrils a couple times and it stopped...burned like hell but was well wroth it...

I've taken almost everything you mentioned and never had any nosebleeds and I have a plethora of health issues! I would goto the dr and get checked out... I know the animal pak couldn't do it to you unless you're just getting too much or too little iron.

I would head to the dr because even if they cant see anything wrong with you they can do a blood test to check your vitamin and mineral levels. Thats good info to have even if you aren't having nosebleeds...it helps you tweak your supps. E.g. I was having major issues with fatigue and thought maybe I wasnt getting enough B vitamins or needed to up my pre workout but I went to the dr to see about some b12 shots and they did a blood screen on me. Turned out my b levels were super but my vitamin D was dangerous low! They gave me a script for some crazy high doses of D and I feel like superwoman now!

It could just be allergies from the weather changing.

There are some vitamins that can thin the blood. If you want to know if your supplements are causing it, it's really simple, stop taking them. If the nose bleeds go away, start taking the supplements again, one at a time, and see if they start up again.

Drop the stims.

Agreed, oral steroids are known to cause that. Stims won't help either...

I have huge problems with nose bleeds, i can barely touch the surface of my nose without causing a tsunami, and had problems with it happening randomly too.
[thats my street cred on nose bleeds :D]

Anyways, dont go to the doctor he will just say stop it.
If you want to continue on the supps, takes time to isolate which is the variable that is the problem.

1. Remember if the gym was humid.
2. Remember if your mood was altered
3. Are you susceptible to nose bleeds during season changes, normally if have problems with nb's this is a problem.
4. What did you eat? ODíng on specific things causes nose bleeds
5. Have you ever taken a multi-vitamin before.

Humidity dry or wet in the moderate to more extreme cases, will cause nose bleeds.
Blood pressure high or low can = nose bleeds
Season changes= air pressure + humidity can = nb's
Blood sugar high or low from lack of food or odíng can = nb's
[B]Multi-vitamins[/B] = if your body is accepting more minerals and vitamins than normal this can drastically change your whole bodies system and throw them out of whack(without going into bloodsugar/pressuer/etc) which can = nb's
p.s. - take multi's after workouts relatively consistent on the timing as well.


In reality there's soooo many factors that can cause nose bleeds,that is if you are already susceptibile to having them in the first place.

Lack of sleep , poor nutrition... Find out what it is , learn from your body.
The doctor will just tell you to stop taking supps, only you can really find out and incorporate your 24/7 life into isolating the culprit it just takes time.

Most likely high blood pressure.

Get it checked, and then visit a doctor if you want prescibed medication. If you think it's a "cycle only" thing and you will be fine once you stop your cycle, you could go with some over the counter Hawthorn Berries and a product like AI's Cycle Support. This should help control it on cycle and through your post cycle therapy.

i've recently found out that my preworkout supplements have given me nose bleeds shortly after my 5 min warm up, i tried RSP Dyn.o and Assault Black by Muscle Pharm, left nostril every time, few occurrences have been 10-15 mins long, and waking up in middle of night to a nose bleed ( winter dry air months likely don't help either, even though i use a humidifier next to my bed) Ive tried a preworkout without caffeine in it called Vega Sport and havent got any nose bleeds so im going to stay away from the products i mentioned above and trying out EVL caffeine free PWO and go from there, i hope this helps anyone experiencing the same issues.
