Is bleeding during sexual intercourse serious?

Normally, many women will experience bleeding symptoms during sexual intercourse. After this happens, women will feel very worried because they are afraid that their bodies will be unhealthy. However, after worrying, many people will not understand what the problem is, so women keep putting it off. In fact, this is very good for the body. So is bleeding during sexual intercourse serious? Let us explain below.

Female sexual intercourse bleeding refers to local bleeding in the vagina or external genitalia during or after sexual intercourse. Generally, the amount of bleeding is not large, and only a very small number can cause heavy bleeding.

Bleeding during sexual intercourse is a common symptom of gynecological diseases, mainly due to the following reasons:

1. Cervicitis. 90% of married women suffer from cervicitis. Cervicitis is divided into three types: mild, moderate and severe according to the degree of cervical erosion. For patients with moderate or severe cervical erosion, the rubbing of the cervix by the glans of the male's penis during sexual intercourse may cause injury and bleeding.

Because the amount of bleeding is small, it does not flow out immediately but accumulates in the vagina, and the color of the blood changes from fresh to old. Therefore, when the blood flows out the next day, it is dark red.

2. Cervical polyps. Chronic inflammation may cause cervical polyps due to long-term stimulation of the cervix. Single or multiple small pedunculated granulation tissues grow at the cervical opening, looking like bean buds, and the larger ones are as big as a finger. Polyps are fragile and tender, and will bleed if touched, so bleeding may occur after sexual intercourse. This bleeding is usually bright red.

If a woman bleeds during sexual intercourse, the first thing to do is to find out the cause of the bleeding during sexual intercourse. If the bleeding during sexual intercourse is caused by local organic lesions of the female external genitalia, the bleeding during sexual intercourse can be cured by curing the local lesions.

If bleeding during sexual intercourse is caused by vulvar eczema, antibiotics should be used first to eliminate the inflammation, and the eczema and herpes should be cured, and the bleeding during sexual intercourse will heal naturally.
