Hi,
Bleeding after sexual intercourse called "post-coital bleeding" is not rare; up to 10% of women have had this at some point in their lives. Abnormal bleeding can bring up the thought, "Is this cancer?" Fortunately, the risk of cancer with post-coital bleeding is not common. For the further evaluation you have to consult best gynecologist also you can go for "Pap smear" test.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
