Bleeding may be noted on the stool or be seen as blood on toilet paper or in the toilet. The blood may be bright red. The term "hematochezia" is used to describe this finding.
Melena refers to black stools that occur as a result of gastrointestinal bleeding. This bleeding typically originates from the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract, which includes the mouth, esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine.
Overt OGIB refers to visible bleeding (i.e. melena or hematochezia), whereas occult OGIB refers to cases of fecal occult blood positivity and/or unexplained iron deficiency anemia.
Melena refers to black tarry stools, which usually occurs as a result of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. It has a characteristic tarry colour and offensive smell, and is often difficult to flush away, which is due to the alteration and degradation of blood by intestinal enzymes.

Your digestive or gastrointestinal (GI) tract includes the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine or colon, rectum, and anus. Bleeding can come from any of these areas. The amount of bleeding can be so small that only a lab test can find it.

There are many possible causes of GI bleeding, including hemorrhoids, peptic ulcers, tears or inflammation in the esophagus, diverticulosis and diverticulitis, ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, colonic polyps, or cancer in the colon, stomach or esophagus.
