General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I have read your description and understand your concern.
Bleeding what you had following intercourse could be due to presence of uterine/cervical polyp or inflammation of cervix called 'cervicitis'. Also, it could be due to vaginal mucosa injuries caused during intercourse because of insufficient lubrication. Sometimes, bleeding can happen due to spotting while on birth control pills.
You need to do the following to find out what could be cause which has contributed to bleeding, so that appropriate measures can be taken to get it treated.
1. Per speculum examination and clinical evaluation by consulting Gynecologist.
2. Ultrasound scan of abdomen and pelvis to know if there are any lesions present in uterus and cervix.
Accordingly, it could be appropriately managed.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
