A member asked:

After having sex for the first time till what time its normal to bleed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hymen: The hymen is a membrane that surrounds or partially covers the external vaginal opening - it is normal to have a small amount of post coital bleeding after your first sexual encounter but this should last not last long at all. See a doctor in person for persistent bleeding
