Hello
thanks for your query.
Bleeding after intercourse could have various reasons.
If it wasnt the first time, it obviously wasnt a hymenal bleed and a hymenal bleed anyway wouldnt last this long.
You could be having cervical polyp, cervical erosion or cervical growth.
endometrial polyps also present in this manner.
Rarely, stress, anxiety, vigorous intercourse, endometriosis, frequent travelling, thyroid disorders, ingestion of hormonal medications, polycystic ovaries could present this way.
If you are sexually active without protection and you have abnormal periods, the possibility of an early pregnancy, failed pregnancy or an ectopic pregnancy always remains.
take care.
