See your doc: Spotting after intercourse suggests bleeding from the cervix. The most common causes of this are STDs and cervical cancer. You need to be examined by a doc to know for sure what is causing this and to receive proper treatment.

Yes, it will...: Luprolex for females is one of brand names of leuprolide to competitively and eventfully decrease estrogen production; hence, its injection will cause expected uterine bleeding leading to potential need for treating blood-loss-related anemia.
