Does Contraceptive Cause Bleeding While Sex?
Hello,
I just began taking birth control pills on last Sunday after having a pap smear. Since then I have had sex 3 times. The first time was normal. The last two times I bled during intercourse. Could this have anything to do with the birth control?

Hi, I have gone through your question. Birth control pills do not lead to bleeding or spotting after the intercourse( post coital bleeding) . Local lesions in cervix or vagina including cervical cancer are the causes of post coital bleeding. Since you had your pap smear, cervical neoplasia will be ruled out.
I would further suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined, investigated and treated accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
