What Causes Intermittent Vaginal Bleeding Post Unprotected Sex?

I started the 3rd of this month and had sex with my boyfriend when i was light and unprotected. Then the day after we had sex i was off of it. We had sex last Saturday unprotected as well. Its been two weeks since my period and im having light blood but i took a test and its negative. Could i be pregnant?

Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
Source of vaginal bleeding post intercourse is mostly cervix ( the lower part of uterus). The bleeding is different from normal period, bleeding from cervix is pinkish red in colour & is light lasting for just 1-2 days. Even when cervix is healthy, vigorous sex can cause some bleeding. This mostly occurs when you have vaginal dryness or less vaginal lubrication.
However bleeding from cervix can be because of some abnormality in cervix. In case of cervix abnormality, even gentle sex can cause much bleeding. If you have never got a pap smear test done previously, You are advised a pap smear to ruleout a cervix problem.

Refer to a gynaecologist.
Hope this information helps
