Patient's question:
My child is eight months old, and it's almost a few days away (but menstruation hasn't arrived). However, on the second day after having sex with my husband, I noticed a little blood in my underwear. I thought it was my period, but it was very, very light and lasted only for one day. I don't think I've ever had my period like this before. What could be the reason? Thank you for your reply!Doctor's answer:
Sexual intercourse bleeding is considered abnormal, often caused by gynecological inflammation. There are many reasons for vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse, such as cervical erosion, cervical polyps bleeding, or vaginal wall damage due to rough sexual activity. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital's gynecology department for examinations such as colposcopy and ultrasound to diagnose and treat the condition clearly. Sexual activity should be paused during this time. Additionally, applying a suitable ointment externally during intercourse can help improve vaginal lubrication and prevent atrophy.
