Hello
Thanks for your query.
Post coital bleeding could have many causes like a cervical erosion, cervical lesion such as polyp or ulcer, endometrial polyp, vaginal foreign body etc.
Firstly, a per speculum examination is essential.
If the Pap smear is normal, a vaginoscopy, colposcopy and hysteroscopy also should be done to know the reason.
Take care.
