What is the reason for bleeding just after menstruation?

Some people will have sex right after their menstruation ends, but sometimes there will be a small amount of vaginal bleeding, which often makes people feel panic. In fact, sometimes vaginal bleeding during sexual intercourse is caused by disease, and sometimes it is caused by the failure of the endometrium to recover. Therefore, do not take vaginal bleeding that occurs just after the menstrual period ends lightly.

The menstruation has just ended, and the endometrium may not have recovered yet. It is recommended to have sex after the menstruation is completely over.

Another thing to consider is whether you have some gynecological diseases, such as cervicitis (erosion). During sexual intercourse, the tip of the male's penis rubs against the cervix, which can 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.

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.

Cervical cancer. Bleeding after sexual intercourse is the earliest symptom. Because there are more small blood vessels and the tissues are more fragile in the cancer lesions, the capillaries will rupture and bleed due to damage after each sexual intercourse. If the cancer grows further, it will bleed more easily.

Endometriosis. Some endometriosis grows on the cervix and appears as blue-purple nodules. If this blue-purple ectopic nodule is touched during sexual intercourse, it will cause bleeding. The amount of bleeding is generally small and dark red, and abdominal pain often occurs after intercourse.

No matter what the cause of vaginal bleeding is, it is best to have sex two or three days after the menstruation is over. After bleeding occurs, you must seek medical attention in time and do not be afraid to see a doctor, so as to avoid vaginal bleeding due to illness and being embarrassed to see a doctor, which will aggravate the condition.
