Patient's question:
I want to ask if it's like this, I just got married not long ago, and when I was having sex with my wife, I noticed that her vagina was bleeding. I'm worried that my wife might have some disease. I want to ask here what causes vaginal bleeding during sexual activity.Doctor's answer:
Vaginal bleeding during intercourse often indicates certain diseases. For example, cervical erosion. In its early stages, it may cause no symptoms, and patients may not seek medical attention or receive systematic treatment. Over time, as the condition worsens, the area and depth of cervical erosion expand, leading to severe cervical erosion. At this stage, the local area becomes, the tissue becomes fragile, and many capillaries lack protection and are superficial. During intercourse, the penis touches the eroded surface of the cervix, causing bleeding. Since the blood vessels are very small and fine, the bleeding amount is usually minimal, and it stops on its own once the contact is removed. Other conditions such as cervical polyps, submucosal uterine fibroids, severe vaginitis, cervical cancer, and pregnancy can also cause post-intercourse bleeding.
