What is bleeding after sexual intercourse between couples? Vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse, be careful of these diseases
In general, normal and harmonious sexual activity will not cause vaginal bleeding in women. If it is neither the first night nor the menstrual period, bleeding in women after sexual activity is mostly a sign of pathological changes, which may be inflammation or uterine problems. More seriously, it may be a precursor to cervical cancer. Therefore, if a woman experiences abnormal bleeding after sexual activity, it must not be taken lightly.
Women with chronic cervicitis who experience sexual stimulation before recovery are less likely to recover, such as cervical polyps, cervical erosion, etc. Couple sexual activity can cause sexual bleeding. What is the reason for sexual bleeding in couples? Vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse is commonly seen in the following situations:
There are mainly two types of damage: hymen damage or vaginal damage. hymen damage is common in women who have sex for the first time, and can be accompanied by pain. This is a normal phenomenon. The amount of bleeding is related to the injured location and degree, but it usually stops after 1-2 hours.
During or after sexual intercourse, if there is excessive bleeding and prolonged bleeding, the possibility of vaginal laceration should be considered. Vaginal lacerations often occur during involuntary or very rough sexual intercourse, or can also be seen in some cases of vaginal deformities.
Genital tract inflammation, such as cervicitis, vaginitis, and endometritis, are common causes of vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse.
Common vaginitis that can cause vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse include fungal vaginitis, trichomonal vaginitis, senile vaginitis, etc. Women with these vaginitis may experience bloody secretions flowing out during sexual intercourse due to stimulation, and may also experience a burning sensation in the vagina. In addition, vaginitis usually accompanied by symptoms such as external genital itching and increased vaginal discharge. In severe cases, vaginal mucosa edema, congestion, or ulceration may also occur, So it's not difficult to be discovered.
Many women of reproductive age have varying degrees of cervical erosion or polyps. Cervical erosion is actually caused by chronic inflammation that persists for a long time. The original squamous epithelium on the surface of the cervix falls off and is covered by columnar epithelial hyperplasia in the cervical canal, appearing as red granules. Usually, mild cervical erosion does not cause bleeding after sexual intercourse.
Cervical polyps are composed of the outer membrane of mucosal glands surrounding the axis of blood vessels, and are completely or partially covered by squamous epithelial cells. Most cervical polyps are asymptomatic, and some may manifest as menstrual bleeding or intermittent bleeding after sexual intercourse.
