Brief Answer:
Gynecological examination

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.Hello. I just read through your qiestion .
This problem can often be alleviates by using an appropriate lubricant. You can use it liberally to reduce the friction that is most likely causing the bleeding. I understand your anxiety related to the issue. Use lubricant and condom for a week as advised but in case bleeding persists then I think you need to visit a gynecologist for examination as it can be due to cervical erosion or vaginal varicose veins.
Also at times some females have highly tenacious and vascular hymen which can also cause similar problem.
So just apply lubricant generously and wear a condom during sex and observe for a week and let's hope for the best.
