One of the most common complaints
at the reception of a gynecologist is
spotting after a gentle act. This phenomenon in modern medicine is called "postcoital bleeding." The reasons that cause it can be very many. We will talk about them below, and also explain why there may be
brown discharge after a gentle act. I would like to immediately note that this phenomenon is absolutely abnormal and is an occasion for a visit to a gynecologist, as it can indicate serious diseases.
Causes
- Your partner is to blame. During sudden movements or deep penetration during sexual intercourse, damage to the genitals is possible. As a rule, in addition to blood, pain will also be present.
- Again, your partner is to blame. This time, it was not his cruelty, but his illness. An extremely rare situation is the presence of blood in semen. In practice, this phenomenon is not so common, but it cannot be ruled out. For a man, the presence of blood indicates diseases of the urinary tract.
- Bloody discharge after a gentle act often occurs in inflammatory processes of the genitals and vagina. Moreover, they can be caused as a fungal infection, and non-compliance with the simplest rules of hygiene. But there is an important BUT: blood flow will occur not only during sex.
- The answer to the question of why spotting can appear after a gentle act is a disease transmitted during sex. Additional symptoms are itching and burning.
- Blood during ovulation or on days close to this process is considered normal. But if this bothers you, then you can consult a doctor who will prescribe you herbal remedies.
- The use of oral contraceptives causes bloody discharge after a gentle act due to a significant thinning of the uterine film. Even their untimely use can cause such a reaction from the body.
- Pathological changes in the structure of the reproductive system, for example, in the cells of the cervix.
- Erosion and polyps are the most common cause of the phenomenon we are considering. They are easily treatable.
- Endometriosis For him, in addition to bleeding, bleeding in the middle of the menstrual cycle is also characteristic.
All of the above reasons must be eliminated. The most important thing is to go to the clinic as soon as possible. However, there are more serious diseases, the symptom of which may be bleeding after sex:
- rupture of a cyst on the ovary;
- started miscarriage;
- ectopic pregnancy;
- rupture of the ovary.
Other signs of these causes are increased sweating, palpitations, weakness, bleeding after sex, accompanied by severe pain, pale skin, weakness, dizziness. If you find such discharge after intercourse at home, then immediately call an ambulance.
