During intercourse, i start spotting. it's not until 5 or 10 minutes later the spotting stops. is this something to be consern about?

Not always: Spotting after intercourse can be from inflammation on your cervix from the friction of the act of intercourse or cervix infection. If you have not had a pap smear or pelvic exam since the problem began you should make an appointment to rule out any treatable causes of spotting.
