A member asked:
I gave birth to my daughter six weeks ago. yesterday i had an orgasm (no penetration) and the postpartum bleeding got heavier again. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not surprising: Orgasm initiates uterine and vaginal contractions and if there is any residual blood sitting in those locations it will be expelled rapidly. If the heavy bleeding continues beyond 2 days, see your GYN MD.
