Spotting after intercourse is not normal.
It might be a cervical lesion, polyp , erosion etc.
YOu need to see an OB - GYN, and go for an internal exam, Pap smear and pelvic ultrasound scan.
All the best.

Hi again.
I think you should be having a gynec evaluation.
It could be mild hormonal imbalance, but the post coital spotting should be looked into.
Take care.
