What Causes Bleeding After Masturbating?
I'm a 17 year old girl and after masturbating I bleed heavily, though as soon as I stop, so does the bleeding. I am not a virgin, and I took the antibiotic for chlamydia which could have been a cause, like after normal sex.. I don't know what else it could be and I'm worried it will happen if I do have sex...Thanks

Hi,
Bleeding after masturbation is commonly due to injury to the cervix, it can be due to a polyp in the cervix or uterus, endometrial tumor, infection due to chlamydia, gonorrhea, vaginal inflammation. When you have an orgasm the blood flow increases in the vagina, cervix & uterus, if there is any pathology you are likely to bleed.
Visit your gynaecologist and have pelvic examination done, get all screening tests done. You may need medications or minor surgery if there is a polyp.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
