A member asked:
My boyfriend and i haven't had sex in a while, until about 3 days ago. after i have been seeing very light red spotting. is it due to friction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Friction/Irritation: A lot of this depends on the timing of your cycle. It is possible that during intercourse, your cervix was irritated (causing the mild spotting you are experiencing). If continues or gets worse, please get checked by your doc. Thanks for your question!
