What Causes Cramps In Lower Part Of Body And Bleeding After Intercourse?
Hi, I finished my period at the beginning of this week and I had sex with my boyfriend as soon as it did. Everything was fine, until that same day I had cramps in the lower part of my body also following the second day, I also felt a little sick and my nose got really sensitive and I wanted to gag every time I smelt something. The fourth day, I noticed I started bleeding again it was light red-dark brown. I m hoping that out of all the symptoms I ve read that this could lead too, I m hoping it would be pregnancy.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
After going through the description, it appears that you are bleeding 4 days later after having sex.
Light red dark brown type of discharge can indicate two possibilities:
1. Residual bleeding from the previous cycle.
2. Implantation bleeding.
Since you had abdominal pain, it appears more so that it could be uncleared bleeding of your previous cycle. Also the time of having sex is not your fertile period.
However, since you are apprehensive about pregnancy, wait patiently for your next periods to happen. If it happens in time, it rules out pregnancy.
If you miss or there is delay in the coming period, then you need to get your urine tested for pregnancy, which will tell you the results.
Hopefully, things should go well.
Make sure to take proper precautions when you have sex next time.
All the best.
