bleeding during intercourse, no pain, plenty lubrication

so i had sex a week ago and no blood and last night i had sex and there was blood. just a little bit not much at all. i am on depo so i haven't had a period in over 2 years.....

i'm 15 years old from Bristol, and i have been bleeding heavily during sex and i am so scared. i don't want to go to the doctors in case it is cervical cancer because this is one of its symptoms. i know my boyfriend wants sex but i don't know how to tell him or how to stop the bleeding just for one time. any advise?? :-(

hey ladies first off in a wierd way it is good to hear that im not alone. all of these entries are really helpful and have given me a little bit of a breather. i bleed during sex all the time and its crazy weird to me. im not on any medication and im not taking birth conrol. i have protected sex 100% of the time and i always try to be safe. my thing is this guy i recently talked to...he pleasured me with his finger and i started bleeding. and apparantly he tasted me after he did so :$ and its really scary for him and i both. i told him i was tested and i came back as having no stds and nothing..i was clear. (i was tested before i was with him) and i test after every partner. so now im a little freaked becuase he thinks hes going to die or catch something ive told him he is ok. but now he wont even respond to me. i dont know what to do or say, ive done my research and based upon that i know he cant catch anything from me. ive told him this and he still refuses to contact me. i guess what im saying is does he have a reson to freak..like am i wrong about my research and my reasoning? i know he has every right to be scared as i do..and im worried about us both...and im going to the doctor to prove 100% to him that we are both ok. but im confused and scared right now..if anyone can help me or share any more information that will help me out. Thank you!

you all think you are too young for this to happen, I'm barely 18 and the first times i had sex I didn't bleed then I got a different boyfriend and both times we had sex I ended up bleeding all over, I mean ALL over its gross and embarrassing. I went to the gynocologist and he said I'm fine, no blood in me, I'm clean as a whistle. I come home all is fine, next day I have sex and bleed all over the place. Someone help me please?

I'm 23 years old and i've been bleeding during intercourse for as long as I can remember. I have talked to my gyno a few times about it in the past, and I got most of the answers the rest of you did. He kept telling me to use more lubricant, when that didn't work he told me to switch brands. One time when I went in and reported the bleeding he agreed that my cervix did look inflamed. He perscribed me anit-inflammitories. The problem is he is fixing the symptom, but not diagnosing the problem. The problem is I am still bleeding, sometimes---sometimes not.

I encourage all of you with this problem DON'T LET YOUR DOCTOR DISMISS YOUR CONCERNS! There has to be a REASON that there is bleeding. If it just happened one or a few times, it may be because you were a little too rough, or not enough lubricant, but if it is a reoccuring issue, there has to be a problem somewhere. I recently had intercourse and got up to discover masses of blood everywhere. It is the most I have ever bled and it scared me (and grossed out my hubby). I recently stopped taking birth control and have been off the pill for about 10 weeks, and I still have bleeding, so I don't think it is related to the birth control. I am determined now to go to my gyno, and not leave without an answer, and if he can't give me that I will get a second opinion.

Hi guys. I'm glad I found this. It has helped to ease my fears. I'm 23 and I have been having some spotting during sex as well. I'm not sure if it's blood...it is kind of the right consistancy, but the colour is brown. It's not a lot, just some spotting I see after.

I recently had a pap and it was normal but the dr. said there was a chance I had a yeast infection, but at that time I hadn't noticed any symptoms. I've since been noticing some symptoms, so I'm going to try clearing that up and see if it helps. However I haven't yet been tested for STDs so I've been extremely worried about that, too. However lots of you tested clear for those and I have only had two partners and have always used protection, so hopefully that is not the case. I will be talking to him about it tomorrow. I will let you know if I learn anything.

Good luck to everyone dealing with this. It's scary, but it feels better not to be alone in this.

I, too, am having this problem. I actually noticed it right after I had my last annual, at the end of August. I am on the Nuvaring and have been for the last almost 3 years, so I don't think that is it. I called the doctor and described my symptoms and they want to do cultures on Tuesday. I am really nervous. The bleeding after sex isn't usually red, its more brown and sometimes thick and mucousy. When I know my test results, I will let everyone know. It sounds like a lot of women are scared to go to the gyn about this. I think everyone needs to because no woman should have to live with bleeding during what should be a wonderful experience between 2 people.

Goodluck to everyone and I will keep you posted!

I am 43 years old and have been bleeding during sex for about 2 years old. I was always irregular with my cycle but got on a schedue when I got on the pill. I was on the pill until 18 months ago and noticed the bleeding started about then. So now 18 months later, my cycle is normal, every 28 days but I bleed during sex about 90% of the time. I have tried to keep track of it (like is it a few days before my period is due or maybe its a couple of days after my period ended) but sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't. I've been back and forth to my GYNO office and he's tested me for every kind of infection, STD, you name it and he can't find the problem. I'm very frustrated and don't even want to go back to his office to waste more time and more money. I don't know what to do. I've always had a great sex life but this is really starting to get old and I'm self-conscious about the bleeding. I can't relax until I see there is no bleeding (this time). Its so frustrating! I'm sorry to hear so many young women are experiencing this too. I had thought it might be premenopausal but even that doesn't seem to be it. The last alternative the doctor is suggesting is the cutting off of the tip of the cervix to see if that works. I don't know what to do.

Thank you for sharing ..Im going thru the same thing. Cancer runs in my family and im frightend to think that thats what it might be.. My last papmsmear showed to be normal, but i keep bleeding. Im 25 and my sex life is ruined. I made an appoinment to see a new Dr. i'm scared out of mind.

I had sex a few days ago and I had liquid flowing out of me (like orgasms but with blood) and its been two days from then, and I've been having like brown substances like those you get after period. Is there something wrong with me? Its scaring my boyfriend and me. %-)

Hi ladies, I thought it only fair that I respond to ALL these posts to give you all some answers.

I’m 29 and have bleed from the first time I have ever had intercourse. I thought I was a total freak and was so embarrassed. I then thought maybe it’s due to being the first time, so I had tried at another time, with sheer worry, and again same thing, blood everywhere. I was ashamed and discussed with myself. I hid this from everyone, thinking I was so abnormal and no one would understand, I kept this hidden for nearly 29 years, until I just had to find out some answers. I went to the doctor, on my own and it was so scary not to have anyone go with you, I had so many tests on all sorts of things, cancer, STD's even HIV. Imagine waiting for the results. They did and all negative. So I got sent to a gyno and she did some further testing, and to discover, I have cervical ectropion, and I can probably say that in nearly 99.9% of the cases ive read on here, that is what all of you have. It’s when the cells in your cervix are outside rather then inside, and when you have intercourse they get rubbed and are thinned down and bleed. I have been told that this is most likely cause by the pill, I can cause abnormalities in SOME girls and I guess we are the luck ones right. I started taking the pill at a really young age 13 due to have the worst period pain imaginable and have been on the pill ever since. I have had the operation that they say CAN get rid of it, they burn the cells in the cervix, and it is the most unpleasant thing to go through, which they don’t bloody tell you, you bleed really heavily for the next 3 months and cannot wear a tampon, yeah nice. And it’s painful. But that’s all fine IF it goes away, but you know what it doesn’t, it just bloody grows back!

I’m going to be honest to all of you, there is no cure, no matter how many docs you go see, no one has answers to fix this thing. They say its ok allot of girls have this. It’s not ok; it’s just not ok at all. I’m 29 and I have hated myself so much for having this I wont go near guys for fear of getting to that next stage with them. This is all good until you meet such an amazing guy, that you want to be intimate with him but are so scared that he will hate you when this happens and you will never see him again and your heart will break into a million pieces. Why do we have to go through this, why is there no cure, why do doctors not care.

Sorry for sounding so negative but I have given up hope, I have seen so many doctors, paid so much money, got on forums and looked everywhere for answers or cures, but there isn’t one. It’s just something that we have to put up with for the rest of our lives.

Hope this has helped so of you with answers, even though it’s not great to hear this it’s the truth.

I could continue to write more and more but i don't think there is much point. If you have questions that i haven't covered feel free to ask and ill help in any way i can, because i do know allot about this problem

Good luck girls, is all I have to say. If you have any helping words id love to hear because this has totally broken me.

:cry i know i been having that same problem ,,, when my husband is not home i dont have sex until he gets here... and when i do 50% f the time i bleed during the intercourse.... i hate the fact that they give me pills and my pap is normal what can it be.... to top it all off i spot so many days before my period that its not funny i am praying for the day that i get back to normal going to the doctor this week just to see what they can give me... the spotting they said was just normal part of my period process that some women get their periods like that .... i am 30 yrs old with 3 boys does anyone have my same problem...

I am a 36 year old Mom of 5 ages 18-2, so i have been around a couple of corners, last month i bleed for the first time during intercourse, it freaked me and my husband out. I have been very scared and praying alot on this. I have never heard of this before happening to anyone. To my surprise that it has no name. My husband is kindof reluctant to get intimate with me now, he stops and checks to see if its happening again and I can tell that he is uncomfortable so am i. Fortunately it has not come back but it is always on my mind while having sex that i didn't enjoy it anymore i am always thinking that it is going to happen again. I try to avoid vaginal intercourse at all times so now we just have oral or anul sex which at first was a little, alot painful but now its great and im not worring the whole time we are having sex and i can't get pregnant again it's a win, win situation. I read the stories of how it doesn't go away and there is no cure, if you can't beat it work around it. Don't let this destroy you or your partners sex life, I didn't and i think he likes it better this way! MEN.

I have had this problem for about 9 years now. I have had every test imaginable and still nothing. Even after two kids it is the same story. However, when I was preg I did not bleed during sex..... Weird. I am very lucky my man is OK with the situation. Even other boyfriends I have had were for the most part OK. I would just make jokes like.."wow look at that YOU made me bleed." Or I would just offer the shower as a place to "do it". It is very frusterating. I am glad to know that I am not alone. When my gyno started doing tests they really had never heard of this. I even had to keep a log of when I had sex and what happend after. Good luck to you all. Maybe someday we will know why..........

-iv been having the same problems and im really scared. im 17 my ma is not in my life so i have no one to turn to for help
