Question: Hi doctor
I have recently slept with my girlfriend who was a virgin. When we first had intercourse there was blood.. do you know why this is? The second time we also had sex there was blood? But I can now say the blood has stopped completely and we can have sex without any blood. Is it common for a women to bleed when she first encounters sexual intercourse?

NB no bleeding after the second time we had sex.

Brief Answer:
It is common during first intercourse

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

It is common to have slight bleeding during first few intercourse and it is possible that her experience of bleeding occurred due to rupture of hymen, a small membrane covering the outer side of vagina.

The bleeding occurs in almost 70 to 80 % of women during the first time intercourse and subsides subsequently in most women.

I hope this helps you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.
