Bleeding during intercourse the day after menstruation

What causes bleeding during intercourse the day after menstruation?

Menstruation is a normal physiological phenomenon unique to women. When menstruation starts, the uterine wall falls off, many wounds appear in the uterus, and bleeding occurs. The blood passes through the uterine cavity and is discharged from the vagina. This is what we often call "menstruation." From then on, a new uterine wall will quickly grow at the wound. After the wound heals, vaginal bleeding will naturally stop and the menstrual period will end. What is the reason for bleeding during intercourse on the second day after menstruation?

After the menstrual period is over, there may be many reasons for bleeding during intercourse the next day. When the menstrual period just ended, the uterus has not yet recovered to its normal state, and there may be a certain amount of blood remaining in the vagina. During sexual intercourse, it may affect the recovery of the uterus, causing the blood in the vagina to be discharged, resulting in bleeding.

During intercourse, the cervix and vaginal wall are stimulated, which may cause blood vessels to rupture and bleeding may occur. When cervical erosion, cervicitis, or vaginitis occurs, the eroded surface will be irritated, causing inflammation and possibly bleeding. When precancerous lesions occur, contact bleeding can also occur. If such bleeding occurs, it is recommended that you see a doctor for a colposcopy as soon as possible to check for any cervical viral infection, without bleeding.

In addition, getting pregnant while drunk will increase the risk of fetal malformations.

4. Pay attention to hygiene before and after sexual intercourse: Couples should clean their external genitals with cold water in time before and after sexual intercourse to prevent bacteria from entering the private parts and causing infection. In addition, women should urinate once after sexual intercourse to kill bacteria and prevent urethral infection.

5. Keep warm: During and after intercourse, you must keep warm. Do not take a shower or drink cold water immediately, as this can easily cause a cold, gastrointestinal discomfort, or digestive tract diseases. You can drink a small amount of warm water or warm milk to replenish your energy.
