Q: i am 5 weeks post op after a hysterectomy with a vaginal cuff. i had anal sex. i have slight bleeding from the vaginal area. is this normal?

: If the anal sex is forceful it could cause the bleeding due to the close proximity. If that is the case, stop any manipulation in the anogenital area then bleeding should stop then you should consult your GYN doctor when you can have sex again. Good luck.
