What Does Orange Color Spotting During Sex Indicate?
Hi I think I m 4-5 weeks pregnant. I ve taken multiple tests that are all negative. My doctor today took a urine test that was negative but they also took blood for a blood test. Waiting for the result. Earlier I was having intercourse with my boyfriend & I started spotting an orangish color during sex. I m wearing a pad right now to be safe but there s nothing on it. Should I be worried? I have a lot of the pregnancy signs. My doctor thinks I am too. She said everything sounds good like my bowels.

Hello,
Spotting you noticed must likely be due to breakage of small blood vessels of the cervix during intercourse. The is especially common during pregnancy as the cervix will have a rich blood supply.
Please be advised to follow up with your ObGyn for the blood HCG results. Also, start taking prenatal vitamins, avoid alcohol and smoking.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
