Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Bleeding during intercourse is a type of contact bleeding. The amount of blood loss is often very small, accompanied by discomfort. Sometimes it may merely involve a few streaks of blood mixed with vaginal discharge, which is medically referred to as contact bleeding. This type of bleeding often indicates the presence of certain diseases. Common conditions associated with post-intercourse bleeding include: cervical erosion, cervical polyps, cervical canal inflammation, submucosal uterine fibroids, and vaginitis.
