What should I pay attention to when bleeding after sleeping together?

Bleeding after having sex is one of the most obvious symptoms of bleeding during sexual intercourse. This bleeding may be contact bleeding, such as improper sexual lifestyle, which may cause vaginal tearing in women. It may also be because women have certain gynecological diseases, such as cervical erosion, cervical polyps, cervical endometriosis or cervical cancer, which can cause the occurrence of such symptoms. Therefore, after discovering the symptoms of bleeding during sexual intercourse, it is necessary to find out the cause and prescribe the right medicine.

1. Contact bleeding

Contact bleeding refers to vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse or after a gynecological vaginal examination. There are many reasons for contact bleeding. If this happens, you should go to the hospital for examination in time to avoid delaying the condition. The following diseases often occur after sexual intercourse bleeding examination, which is worthy of vigilance.

2. Cervical erosion

Cervicitis is divided into three types: mild, moderate and severe according to the degree of cervical erosion. For patients with moderate or severe cervical erosion, the rubbing of the cervix by the glans of the male's penis during sexual intercourse may cause injury and bleeding. Because the amount of bleeding is small, it does not flow out immediately but accumulates in the vagina, and the color of the blood changes from fresh to old. Therefore, when the blood flows out the next day, it is dark red.

3. Cervical polyps

Single or multiple small pedunculated granulation tissues grow at the cervical opening, looking like bean buds, and the larger ones are as big as a finger. Polyps are fragile and tender, and will bleed if touched, so bleeding may occur after sexual intercourse. This bleeding is usually bright red.

4. Cervical Endometriosis

Some endometriosis grows on the cervix and appears as blue-purple nodules. If this blue-purple ectopic nodule is touched during sexual intercourse, it will cause bleeding. The amount of bleeding is generally small and dark red, and abdominal pain often occurs after intercourse.

5. Cervical cancer

Bleeding after sexual intercourse is the earliest symptom. Because there are more small blood vessels and the tissues are more fragile in the cancer lesions, the capillaries will rupture and bleed due to damage after each sexual intercourse. If the cancer grows further, it will bleed more easily. In the early stages of cervical cancer, there are usually no specific symptoms. The earliest symptom is bleeding after sexual intercourse. Therefore, when contact bleeding occurs, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible for a cervical smear examination and a colposcopy if necessary to further clarify the diagnosis, so as to avoid delaying the diagnosis and losing the opportunity for treatment.

In addition, there are also severe vaginitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc., which may cause contact bleeding. The amount of bleeding is generally not much, sometimes there is only a little blood in the leucorrhea, which is easily ignored by patients. But even if it is discovered, some patients do not take it seriously and do not go to the hospital for treatment, which affects the early diagnosis of the disease.
