Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Menstruation: I need more information to answer your question here. It's not your period? If you're having a irregular periods, you should see a gynecologist. Even if you're having regular periods, any persistent bleeding after sex should be evaluated because you may have a bleeding cervical polyps , ectropion , or even infection.
