I'm on Lexapro and I noticed the same thing. Now I've been on it only for about 2 weeks now and I still noticed that I've had diarrhea and sometimes I will have constipation also. At first the lexapro did cause some bleeding but then it went away in the next few days. I still am having problems with with diarrhea somewhat but otherwise it's a lot better than it was the first few days.
