A member asked:

Please explain what does it mean when there is blood from genitals after sex, around the time of menstruation, but no period?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bleeding: While there could be numerous reason for postcoital bleeding that are simple such as bleeding from a surface vessel of your cervix, postcoital bleeding needs to be evaluated to rule out more sinister things like cancer.
