Patient's question:
I haven't had sexual activity today, but after having sex, I noticed some bloodstains on my fingers. The amount wasn't much. Previously, during sex, there had been no broken skin. I checked a few times, and today is the day after ovulation. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal bleeding during intercourse requires identifying the underlying cause. If the bleeding is due to organic inflammation of the female external genitalia, the local inflammation should be resolved, and the bleeding will naturally cease. First, use antibiotics to completely eliminate the inflammation, and allow conditions like eczema and herpes to heal on their own. The bleeding will then naturally subside. If the bleeding is caused by trichomoniasis, treatment for the trichomoniasis should be administered first. Once the trichomoniasis is resolved, the bleeding will naturally cease. If the bleeding is due to improper intercourse, both partners should practice sexual knowledge together, show mutual understanding, and engage in thorough communication. The woman should relax mentally, and the man should be gentle during intercourse, avoiding roughness.
