Why do I bleed after every intercourse?

Why does bleeding occur after intercourse? Under normal circumstances, a normal and harmonious sex life will not cause vaginal bleeding in women. Vaginal bleeding after intercourse usually indicates the presence of some pathological condition. The following are some common causes of vaginal bleeding after sex.

Why does bleeding occur after sex?

There are many reasons for bleeding during intercourse, which can be roughly divided into two categories: poor sexual life and organic diseases of the female urinary system. If you have bleeding during intercourse, you need to go to the hospital for examination in time to detect cervical cancer as early as possible and treat it as soon as possible. You should also pay attention to the hygiene of yourself and your sexual partner, and pay attention to relaxing in your daily life.

There are many gynecological diseases that cause bleeding during intercourse, the most common ones are cervical polyps, cervical erosion, submucous uterine fibroids, intrauterine device insertion, senile vaginitis, cervical cancer, vaginal cancer, etc. Cervical erosion and cervical polyps are both manifestations of chronic cervicitis. Cervical polyps are caused by the irritation of chronic cervical inflammation. They are caused by the hyperplasia of the cervical mucosa, which gradually protrudes outward. Its surface is covered with a layer of columnar epithelial cells, which are rich in capillaries and are easy to bleed when touched. Cervical erosion is also due to long-term inflammatory stimulation, which causes the squamous epithelium on the surface of the cervix to fall off, and the fallen surface is gradually covered by columnar epithelial cells formed by the proliferation of the cervical canal. The columnar epithelial cells are too thin, and there are blood vessels and interstitial space directly below them, so it is very easy to bleed during sexual intercourse.

Women with submucosal uterine fibroids, especially those protruding from the cervix, may experience bleeding during sexual intercourse because the mucosal surface is prone to ulcers and infections. Women who use contraceptive rings may sometimes experience bleeding during sexual intercourse. This is because the intrauterine ring is a foreign body in the uterine cavity. Its reflexive compression can cause partial damage, necrosis and ulcers of the uterine wall, and there is a possibility of bleeding. In this case, the stimulation of sexual intercourse can cause bleeding. The main early symptoms of cervical cancer may also include bleeding during intercourse, which is why we should attach great importance to bleeding during intercourse.

The cervix of patients with early cervical cancer may not have obvious changes, or cancer and cervical erosion may exist at the same time. Cervical cancer bleeds easily when touched, mostly because the cervical cancer tissue invades the intrastromal blood vessels. Postmenopausal women are prone to senile vaginitis due to the lack of estrogen. At this time, the vaginal mucosa becomes soft and may be damaged during intercourse, causing bleeding.

What should you pay attention to during bleeding during intercourse

If a woman bleeds during sexual intercourse, the first thing to do is to find out the cause of the bleeding during sexual intercourse.
