What to do if you have vaginal bleeding after sex

It is normal to bleed after your first sexual intercourse because the hymen is torn. If the amount of bleeding is particularly heavy and cannot be stopped, you should go to the hospital for a check-up, otherwise excessive bleeding may be life-threatening, if it is not your first sexual intercourse and you have bleeding symptoms. You should go to the hospital as soon as possible. It is possible that you have a gynecological disease and you need active treatment.

Vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse must first rule out problems with the female's reproductive tract, such as common vaginal polyps, cervical polyps, cervical erosion, uterine fibroids, etc., due to the friction and impact of the penis, causing the polyps or ulcerated areas to rupture and bleed; if bleeding after sexual intercourse often occurs, you must also be alert to cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, etc.; sexual intercourse during the middle of the menstrual period may cause a small amount of vaginal bleeding due to corpus luteum rupture; women with ectopic pregnancies may have ectopic rupture after sexual intercourse, and some of them will also experience bleeding; menopausal women often experience anovulatory uterine bleeding due to ovarian dysfunction, sometimes just after sexual intercourse; some women may also rupture and bleed when the clitoris is subjected to rough stimulation during sexual intercourse.

It is not uncommon for patients with urinary tract stones or tuberculosis, bladder polyps and cancer to experience urinary tract bleeding after intercourse and mistake it for vaginal bleeding. The ovaries are called temporary warehouses for tumors. Tumors in other parts of the body, especially stomach cancer, liver cancer, intestinal cancer in the digestive tract, and lung cancer in the respiratory tract are very likely to metastasize to the ovaries. During sexual intercourse, the ovarian cancer tumor may be stimulated and rupture, and blood may flow out of the vagina.

There are many factors that can cause symptoms of bleeding after sexual intercourse. If a lot of bleeding occurs, you must go to the hospital's gynecology department for examination immediately. Some situations are very critical. Don't feel embarrassed and delay. You must take it seriously. Otherwise, if bleeding continues, it may endanger your health. You must pay attention.
