i have started to notice some bleeding during sex with my fiance. Im 25 years old and had sex with my fiance last night. i had some light spotting during the week and as my periods are irregular this usually means i am about to come on. but after sex i went to the toilet and found i was bleeding. it was very sticky and red. could this just be because im due on my period or could it be something more sinister? im due to book my first cervical smear test too!! please reply and put my mind at ease!!! Thanks x
Hey mel. I would not freak out about this at this point. Let think physically what happend durring sex. Your vagina, clitoris and vulva fill with blood. These tissues/organs are highly vascular. When your body is getting ready to start menstraating the blood supply increases even more. Then as you have sex there is a lot of friction/force/pressure on all of this tissue and delicate capilaries especially if the sex was rough and or your boyfriend has a larger penis. This will cause some light bleeding do to capilaries bresking but its nothing to be too concerned about.... does thus make sense?
yes thanks so much for your help =) alot calmer now! thanks!! xx
hey there glad i could help
