Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Bleeding after intercourse can be due to vaginal trauma, cervical polyp or vaginal polyp.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN urgently so that she can be properly examined internally and appropriate treatment can be done, before she loses excessive blood.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
