What Causes Vaginal Bleeding Post Intercourse?

For the past few weeks I have been bleeding after sex for days with cramps. I also have been bleeding after masturbation without any penetration. After the bleeding stops everything goes back to normal. I am on the depo shot. In the past i stopped receiving the depo shot due to continuous bleeding for months.

Hello,

If bleeding is due to intra-vaginal penetration and masturbation, then there are 2 main things going in my head (correct me if wrong):
- Hard / dry sex
- Use of hard subjects for the pleasure of masturbating.

Being on Depo, makes your vaginal mucosa more susceptible to bleeding if the above-mentioned situations are true. However, if I was your caring doctor would recommend to check for genital infection. Discuss with your caring gynecologist for the most appropriate tests for you after he/she will run a physical and intra-vaginal examination. Meanwhile keep good genital hygiene.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
