Why is there bleeding after sex

Patient's question:

I had sex with my girlfriend, and it was her first time. She bled for the first time, which might have been because her hymen broke. We had sex again twice after that, with the last time being the next morning. But why is there still a small amount of bleeding from her vagina? And when she went to the bathroom in the afternoon, there was still a little bit, but it stopped by the evening. Why is this happening? Is it harmful to her body?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your situation, the bleeding during sex is likely due to excessive force during intercourse, which has caused local damage to the vaginal area. This bleeding will stop on its own relatively quickly. There are many reasons for post-coital bleeding, with the most common causes being: vaginal mucosal injury, cervical erosion, cervical polyps, etc. To confirm the diagnosis and treatment, it is necessary to undergo examinations. Moreover, in such cases, it is best not to use medications indiscriminately to avoid adverse reactions. Wishing you health and beauty.
