Protected Sex After A Long Gap, Started Bleeding Continuously 3 Days After The Encounter, Blood Color Differs From That Of Menses. Cause?
I had sex a week ago with my boyfriend. He used a condom and i m on the pill . I hadn t had sex for about a year and he was bigger than I was used to. I started bleeding three days after intercourse and have been having light bleeding for about 4 days now. From descriptions I ve read about implantation bleeding, it doesn t seem to be that. The blood is the same color as it is when i m on my period. What can be the cause of this bleeding?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
If it the time of your periods, then naturally, the bleeding is due to periods.
A vaginal tear is unlikely as you would have started bleeding right away & not after 3 days.
It is not implantation bleeding.
Most likely it is some genital tract pathology. Go & get yourself examined by a Gynecologist.
Wish you best of luck.
