What Could Cause Slight Bleeding After Sex?
I had sex for the first time 2 days ago. After having sex for the third time it would sting when I urinated. There is some blood and it only bleeds when I wipe myself after going to the bathroom. It is also possible that I might be on my period. It does not sting when I have sex once the man is fully in.

Hello,
The female urethra is shorter in length and hence is easily prone to trauma and infection. During first intercourse, owing to pressure on the urethra, a condition called 'Honeymoon Cystitis' sets in and is usually self-resolving with anti-spasmodics and antibiotics. Also, the hymen ruptures at first intercourse and this can lead to spotting and bleeding. Please abstain from intercourse until the tear heals and meanwhile see a specialist for further suggestions. Hope this helps.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to broken hymen. As you had sex for the first it could have broken partially or it is sore after broken. Other possibility is tear on vagina. These can give pain when urine fall on it. Pouring warm water while urination will be helpful to ease that burning sensation. If the opening is sore you can apply betadine ointment also. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the area as it can irritate more. The burning sensation will stop when it heals.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
