Hello,

Unprotected sex during period time is quite safe and chance of being pregnant is nil. In case of 2nd time sex on April 27th, you got bleeding on the next day and it is not your conception or implantation bleeding.

It may be due to local trauma during sex, hormonal imbalance by using birth control pill (quite common), cervical/ endometrial polyp, vaginal infection etc.

Here, you need to get examined by your gynecologist to rule out underlying pathology if any. Take suggestive measures accordingly. It keeps you in safe place.

Try to avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink more fluids, maintain genital hygiene properly and continue to take birth control pill. Good luck.
