Causes of bleeding after menstruation

During menstruation, you need to protect yourself comprehensively. At this time, women must pay attention to their diet and cannot choose cold foods, otherwise it will affect the body. Women should not have sex at this time, as this can easily cause gynecological diseases. What is the reason for bleeding during intercourse after menstruation? Many women are not clear about this. Let's introduce it in detail below.

Causes of bleeding after menstruation:

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

2. Bleeding after cervical cancer is its earliest symptom. Because there are more small blood vessels and more fragile tissues in the cancer lesions, the capillaries will rupture and bleed due to damage every time after sexual intercourse. If the cancer progresses, it will bleed more easily.

3. Cervical polyps: Cervical polyps may occur due to long-term stimulation of the cervix by chronic inflammation. Single or multiple small granulation tissues with pedicles grow at the cervical opening, looking like yellow sprouts, 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.

4. Cervicitis (cervical erosion) 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.

After understanding the causes of bleeding during intercourse after menstruation, women who experience such a situation should undergo a physical examination in a timely manner. If it is caused by the above diseases, it must be treated in a timely manner. Otherwise, if the condition becomes serious, the treatment will be very troublesome and it will also have a great impact on one's own body.
