Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi! I was sexually actively for the first time 23 days ago and the day after, I noticed some spotting while urinating. It s been 3 days and my urine now has an odd odor to it, I m still spotting from my vagina and I have cramps whenever I urinate. Any idea on what s happening?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is normal to have bleeding or spotting on first few occasions after intercourse due to the presence of ruptured hymen membranous tissue. The other reason could be due to urethral mucosal injury causing bleeding. Gradually, it should subside and stop by about a week time.
In case the spotting continues, you need to undergo per speculum examination by consulting a gynecologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Ashakiran S
