What is the reason for leucorrhea with blood after sex?

Maybe many careful women have discovered that leucorrhea is easily streaked with blood after having sex. Women who don’t know about this feel particularly scared. After all, abnormal leucorrhea has a great impact on women’s health. So what are the main reasons for bloody leucorrhea after having sex?

1. Vaginitis: The most common symptoms of vaginitis are vulvar itching, increased leucorrhea, milky white mucous or light yellow purulent leucorrhea, occasionally mixed with a small amount of blood, lumbar and sacral pain, and pelvic pain. Severe cases can cause infertility.

2. Uterine fibroids: Most patients have no obvious symptoms and are only occasionally discovered during pelvic examination. If symptoms occur, they are often manifested as: heavy menstrual flow, irregular bleeding, increased leucorrhea, lower abdominal distension, frequent urination, etc.

3. Endometrial cancer: The clinical manifestations are irregular bleeding, with the amount of bleeding varying from time to time. Premenopausal women may have heavy menstrual flow and prolonged duration, while postmenopausal women may experience postmenopausal bleeding.

4. Cervical polyps: It is generally believed that they are caused by long-term stimulation of chronic inflammation. Long-term inflammatory stimulation promotes excessive proliferation of cervical mucosa. In addition, the uterus has a tendency to expel foreign bodies, causing the hyperplastic mucosa to gradually protrude from the base to the external os of the cervix to form polyps. The main symptoms are a small amount of bright red spotting, or a small amount of bleeding after sexual intercourse, which is sometimes mistaken for "menstruation". The amount of bleeding in a few people may be similar to that of menstruation. Some patients may have yellow leucorrhea, most of which have an odor, or have blood in the leucorrhea. It can also manifest as postmenopausal vaginal bleeding, and unmarried patients often have a swelling protruding from the vaginal opening.

5. Other reasons

For example, it may be caused by not using the correct posture during sex, or by excessive friction. In addition, leucorrhea with blood is sometimes caused by the placement of an intrauterine contraceptive ring. However, it can improve after anti-inflammatory treatment, and most of the cases are sporadic. A very small number of hypertensive patients may occasionally have bloody vaginal discharge due to vascular sclerosis and rupture.
