Patient's question:
I'm a newly married girl, just beginning to experience sex. Why have I been bleeding after these few encounters with my husband? Is it possible that he scratched my vagina with his nails during foreplay?Doctor's answer:
Post-coital bleeding can occur due to several reasons:1. Rough behavior may damage the vaginal mucosa or the skin around the vaginal opening, causing bleeding, which is usually fresh blood.
2. Cervical diseases, such as cervical erosion or cervical cancer. If post-coital bleeding occurs repeatedly and is unrelated to position, it is essential to visit a hospital for examination and early treatment.
3. Immediately after menstruation, when the vagina and endometrium are still healing, sexual activity may cause bleeding. This is a normal situation, but it is recommended to visit a hospital for examination to rule out the possibility of gynecological inflammation.
