Bleeding After Period. Had Protected Sex, Taken Progesterone Pill. Reason?
HI, i am seventeen years old. i had period two weeks ago but now i am bleeding again from yesterday morning . i had PROTECTED sex after two days my period had stopped . he used a condom, it did not break but for safety i took an emergency contraceptive (progesterone only) pill after 6-7 hours in full stomach ( i went to sleep and ate when i woke up and then took the pill ) . now i am bleeding as it is regular period . could it be the pill?? but i have been taking it for past 6 months and i never had this kind of bleeding between period. i dont use any regular contraceptive as i only have sex once in a month and i take the ECP every time . i dont think its STD/STI as we both are each others first and he is very loyal . is there any possibility that i hurt myself somehow during masturbation? i masturbated before the day i started having this bleeding and i had a cut in my finger which was dried and blood was not oozing . what should i do?? i can not tell my parents and i am from Bangladesh so going to a doctor is the last thing on the list. is there any medicine i can take?

hello,welcome to HCM
iam dr N.....
as you had protected safe sex and two days after your periods which is relatively safe you need not worry of pregnancy..
as you said you have been taking progesterone pills since 6 months (?every time after after sex)..these harmonal pills can cause side effects if taken unnecesarily,unwantedly and without a drs advice(withdrawal bleeding ,over bleeding ,and many other side effects)
i sincerely suggest you to avoid taking emergency contraceptives and harmonal pills unnecessarily.
probably you had a withdrawal bleeding and unlikely due to masturbation but be careful while doing as they are delicate,sensitive parts with rich blood supply which can bleed profusely on injury
consult a gynaecologist if you still have bleeding or any other complaint
regards...bye
