Today, I bled after masturbation. Why?

Question

Hi doctor,

My period is a little late, just only a day. But, I have been having many pregnancy symptoms. I masturbated yesterday (penetration and clitoral stimulation to orgasm) and a considerable amount of blood came out. Some blood flushed itself out for some time and I am clear now. What does this mean? Before, I was worried that I was pregnant, but that blood was too much to be spotted from implantation I think. Was it period blood as I masturbated roughly? I had a bit of cramping today.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It may be your period bleeding or may be bleeding due to masturbation. For that have to check clinically for any sign of vaginal tear or just bleeding from your uterus. If you have a doubt that last month had sex and can be pregnant, then do a urine pregnancy test. If negative, then you are not pregnant and it was either your period or bleeding due to masturbation. Cramping also can be due to your menstruation, as it may be going on and you will bleed in short time. In case of laceration of the vagina while masturbation also, you will get cramps. If bleeding is not there, then it is difficult to say the cause. But, forget everything and just do a urine pregnancy test in case of doubt. Other things are normal as you are not bleeding now.
