Could Spotting With Bleeding After Intercourse Be Due To A Pregnancy?

Hi, I've been trying to get pregnant for a couple of months now, last month in march I got what i thought was my period.. It was more like spotting at first, nothing like my normal period, I usually get it really heavy at first.. I used a tampon and it seemed to go away within a day. I didnt bleed at all the next day. and for the next 3 days I would only bleed after sex.. is that normal? Could I be pregnant?

Hi dear thanks for writing to Healthcare Magic!!
It is early to say about the pregnancy because there is no absence of periods which is the main indicator of pregnancy, spotting is possible due to any trauma, infection or pathology such as cyst so i advise you to consult a gynaecologist to know about the cause of spotting and also ultrasound for the confirmation of the cause.
Hope this information helps
Thanks and regards
