Did u call your gyn?: Hopefully you already called your gyn who did the cyro, i assume your gyn told you not to have sex until a couple of days after your discharge is totally gone, you need to see your gyn to make sure the cervix is healing properly and does not have an infection, and no more intercourse until you se your gyn.

Not normal: When a woman first has sex, there may be bleeding the first few times. After that, it's not normal to have bleeding. You should get checked to find out why you are bleeding. It very well may be nothing serious, but you need to get checked to know for sure.
