Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

I understand that you are quite worried about your recent situation. Vaginal bleeding, other than regular periods, can be due to a variety of causes - like irregular periods, infections in the cervix or vagina, uterine problems, vaginal tears due to rough sex, etc. It is not possible to arrive at a definitive cause without a proper examination and evaluation.

Regarding the chance of contracting infections / STDs, irrespective of whether there was bleeding or not, if you had unprotected intercourse, there is a risk. So, if this is the case, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Wish you all the best.
