What is the cause of bleeding after a few days of sex?

There are many common problems in life. When solving some problems, you must choose the correct method so that it will not have too much impact on yourself. What's the matter with bleeding a few days after having sex? This is also something that couples are not very clear about. There are some reasons for this situation between couples, and it is necessary to understand this. The following is a detailed introduction so that you know how to solve it.

What is the cause of bleeding after a few days of intercourse?

1. Damage to the hymen. The most common is rupture of the hymen during first sexual intercourse. This bleeding usually occurs during sexual intercourse. There may be pain and bleeding at the time, but the amount of bleeding is usually not much. If the injury is not serious, the bleeding will stop soon. However, sometimes when the rupture of the hymen happens to damage the blood vessels in that area, bleeding is more severe and requires pressure to stop the bleeding (such as using a clean cotton ball or gauze, a clean towel, etc.), or even going to the hospital for treatment.

2. Vaginal laceration. Vaginal bleeding occurs during or after sexual intercourse and the amount of bleeding is heavy, difficult to stop on its own, and lasts for a long time. Vaginal lacerations often occur during involuntary sexual intercourse or very rough sexual intercourse. Vaginal lacerations are also seen in vaginal malformations, such as vaginal septum, transverse septum, double vagina, and vaginal stenosis. If the vaginal wound heals poorly after vaginal plastic surgery, hymen repair, vaginal tumor removal surgery, or hysterectomy, sexual intercourse may easily cause damage. Improper sexual posture and position can also cause vaginal injury and bleeding.

The amount of bleeding depends on the location and extent of the injury. There was a woman who, after being raped, suffered severe lacerations from the posterior vaginal wall to the vaginal vault and suffered heavy bleeding. She went to the hospital for treatment 6 hours later. When she did, she had already shown signs of hemorrhagic shock, including pale complexion, rapid pulse, and low blood pressure.

After understanding why bleeding occurs a few days after intercourse, comprehensive measures should be taken to improve the condition. After this happens, it is best for the couple not to have sex within 2 months, otherwise it will trigger this situation again. The other couple should also pay attention to avoid aggravating the problem.
