A member asked:
Does bleeding after intercourse always mean an infection? or could it just be from too much friction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not always: Vaginal bleeding after intercourse does not always mean infection, it may also indicate some mild trauma. Condoms and lubricant's for condom should be used to prevent tearing the vaginal wall tissue. See your healthcare provider continues to run after several days or you have vaginal or pelvic pain and weakness.
