Hello!
Thanks for your query.
Postcoital bleeding isnt normal but it can be caused from:
infection
cervical or endometrial polyps
vaginal cancer
cervical cancer
trauma
To determine aetiology of postcoital bleeding, you need for further evaluation by your gyn .
If your recent PAP smear is negative ,despite the low rate of serious pathologies seen in referred postcoital bleeding,is recommended colposcopy.
