so i started my period saturday and usually it only goes until monday meaning gone by tuesday morning (i'm on loestrin 24 fe birth control which shortens periods) but this month i was still spotting alittle on wednesday. Also this month i had the worst cramps ever. Then thursday night me and my boyfriend had sex and everything was fine, i noticed i might have been alittle dry though when we started, afterwards he noticed i was bleeding. it was light red. this has never happened before. i thought it might of still been my period but it is now friday and i feel kind of sore down there and i've noticed a little blood in my underwear today. Also i've been getting yeast infections the past couple months. so i'm not sure what to think. if its my period? the yeast infection back? something tore in my vagina? or is it serious? any suggestions? i'm going to go to the doctors next week if it doesn't stop....but need some advice until then.
It seems to me that yeast infections you had have made the tissue of your cervix and the inside of your vagina very sensitive to any kind of irritations and "dry sex" is probably to blame for this bleeding you are experiencing right now. This shouldn't be serious - tissue of your vagina heals easily and the good thing is you have appointment scheduled to check if there might be yeast infection again. Even the treatments for yeast infections might have contributed to drying out natural lubrication of your vagina which made it more irritable.
