A member asked:

What causes vaginal discharge after climax or orgasm to be gritty and sometimes slightly bloody?

Dr. Hunter Handsfield answered

Specializes in Infectious Disease

See your doctor: There is no single cause of this. Any new, abnormal, or unexplained vaginal discharge requires professional evaluation.. Same for any unexplained vaginal bleeding. Also be sure you're really seeing vaginal discharge and blood, and not your partner's abnormal (infected?) semen.
