What should I do if there is a small amount of bleeding during sex at the end of the menstrual period?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Sexual intercourse bleeding, if it occurs one or two days after the menstrual period, is normal. This is because, although the menstrual period has ended, it is not ruled out that the discharge has not been completely expelled from the body. In this case, bleeding during sexual intercourse is normal. If sexual intercourse bleeding occurs outside the menstrual period, it should be considered as a cervical lesion, such as cervical erosion. However, these conditions usually have other symptoms, such as abnormal vaginal discharge. If sexual intercourse bleeding occurs after the menstrual period, there is no need to worry. If it occurs outside the menstrual period, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up.
