Hello
there is raised level of a Hormone, prolactin which can cause vaginal dryness. This could be the cause of pain during sex . Bleeding may be due to the menses. so try to involve more passionate and longer foreplay of different kinds before insertion. Let there be variety in the quality and quantity of foreplay.
