Can A Fall Cause Vaginal Bleeding?

I think I broke my tail bone when I fell down the stairs. My back, beck, collar bone and knee all hurt too. But the question is could s fall cause vaginal bleeding? I am 9 weeks pots having a baby and breastfeeding so I don't think it is a cycle as it started right after the fall. It's been 36 hours now.

Hi,
Yes, you are right. Injury can often lead to vaginal bleeding, be it due to the stress associated or to organic injury. Anyway, you need to get an opinion from a specialist in person in order to rule out organic injury. It is also likely that a menstrual cycle may have ushered in; it is possible to resume menstruation after a couple of months of a delivery in spite of feeding the baby. Please rest in bed and use a sanitary pad to observe the amount and nature of bleeding. If no organic cause has been found and if the bleeding does not subside, you may need styptics. Hope your query has been answered. Wish you good health.
