What Could Cause Bleeding After Intercourse, Had Abstained For Over A Year And Also Have History Of Hysterectomy?

I had a hysterectomy in 1997. I currently became involved after not having sex for almost over a year. After have sex last week, I noticed I was bleeding. It happened again the other night. I have not had this happen in years and it s kinda making me nervous as well as my partner. There is no pain and plenty of lubrication. What is wrong woth me?

Thanks for query.Bleeding after sexual intercourse is known as postcoital bleeding. Cervical dysplasia and cervical cancer may be associated with postcoital bleeding and is the most significant cause.
However, there are many other causes such as chlamydial cervicitis. cervical polyps, which may become apparent as postcoital bleeding. Postcoital bleeding may result from atrophy of the vaginal and vulvar epithelium (atrophic vaginitis). This can happen as a result of menopause but can be seen in premenopausal women. Even quite minor traumatic lesions may cause severe postcoital bleeding if co-existent coagulation disorder. Ectropion may also present as postcoital bleeding.

I would advise you to seek an appointment with a gynaecologist.regards
