What Causes Bleeding After Sexual Intercourse?

I had sex, with a fairly endowed guy, but now I am bleeding 48 hours later, and enough to use a pad. I just finished my period about two weeks ago, so it's defineltey not normal. This is not a reoccurring thing. I am a little bit worried, we are both clean too.

Hi ,
How are you doing ?
Am putting forward a list of possibilities--
1. Cervical erosion - Can occur due to infection at the mouth of cervix. These will be raw areas which will bleed even at mild touch. Treatment is to get evaluated by gynecologist & treated with antibiotics & vagina pessaries.
2. Cervical polyp - chances are low, but these small root like growths can cause intermittent bleeding.
3. This could also be a polyp from the uterine cavity, causing bleeding independently, usually in between periods. This has no relation to sex, it may be coincidental bleeding .
Any way , you will need to control bleeding with hormone pills under the supervision of gynecologist. Have evaluation & scan & further management based on finding.
I hope I have cleared the queries, do write back if any more queries
All the best
