Why do I bleed when I have sex?

When many people are still immersed in the enjoyment of their recent sex life, they walk into the bathroom and suddenly find bleeding from their lower body. Compared with vaginal bleeding, nothing can quickly bring people back to reality. There are many reasons that can cause bleeding during intercourse, and none of them should be underestimated. Let’s discuss why bleeding occurs after having intercourse.

1. Abnormal cervical growth and development: Abnormal cervical growth and development is a sign of cervical squamous cell lesions. Having multiple sexual partners, having sex before age 18, becoming pregnant before age 16, or having a history of sexually transmitted diseases can all increase the likelihood of cervical abnormalities. Treatment is usually carried out by performing cryosurgery.

2. Mycoplasma infection: Virus infection is generally transmitted through sexual intercourse and infection with male sperm, vaginal fluid or blood.

3. Gonorrhea: a sexually transmitted disease caused by a viral infection. This disease can be cured by many medications.

4. Vaginitis or cervicitis: It may be inflammation of the vagina or cervix, caused by tumor or viral infection. Treatment depends on the cause.

5. Cervical polyps: Cervical polyps are a type of growth that occurs in the endometrium of the cervix, or a hairless, bright red or purple, finger-like tumor that grows in the endometrium of the cervix. Cervical polyps are very sensitive and protrude from the cervix, making them very easy and painless to remove.

6. Trichomoniasis: A sexually transmitted disease generally caused by protozoa. It can also be transmitted from a pregnant mother to her newborn during childbirth. Sometimes, the virus is transmitted from drinking water, urine, toilet seats, and swimming pools. This type of disease can cause vaginitis.

7. Vaginal yeast infection: excessive growth of bacteria in the vagina. The common symptoms include: vaginal itching, pain, odor, abnormal leucorrhea, etc.

8. Endometritis: Endometritis is an infection of the uterine wall.

9. Uterine polyps: When the uterine wall is perforated, causing the uterine wall to extend outward and into the uterus, uterine polyps will occur. Women with uterine polyps may experience bleeding between their periods. Other symptoms include: bleeding during sexual intercourse, menorrhagia, bleeding after menopause, and bleeding during the period of taking male hormone therapy. Shaving surgery with the assistance of hysteroscopy is a good solution.
