Bleeding post coital: I suggest that you see your gyn, and have a pap smear. Possibly you have an infection of the cervix.

Many causes: Pregnancy is one possibility, and there are many others-- infections, stds, a cervical or uterine polyp, fibroids, and other causes including precancerous or even cancer. See your doctor to be sure.
