Is it normal to have bleeding after the first intercourse?

Question

Hi doctor,

I had sex for the first time with my husband. I am still bleeding now. I think that my bleeding started to occur due to my hymen being stretched or torn. As my bleeding continued, I thought that I had started to have periods, as I experience irregular periods. My bleeding was more like spotting. It happens after passing nickel-sized blood clots. Is it normal to have blood clots during periods? The number of blood clots has reduced to two to three by now. But the size varies, and it does not exceed that of a nickel. I do not have any pain. I did not have sex with my husband again.

Kindly help.

Answer 4

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

You have suffered from a hymen tear along with some minor bruises inside the vagina as you had intercourse for the first time. As you have a history of irregular periods, do not be tense and worried. I suggest you sit on the edge of the bed, chair, or in front of a mirror and then examine your vagina for any injury. Wash your vagina with V-wash. Apply Surfaz SN cream (Beclomethasone, Neomycin, and Clotrimazole) locally outside the vagina. Keep the area dry and avoid doing intense exercise. Wear loose cotton underwear and use barrier contraception like condoms while having sex.

Thank you.

You can do sex with your husband. Be gentle. Do sex with barrier contraception like condoms to avoid having transmission of any infection if you are unable to locate a small bruise.

Thank you.
