blood?!?

a few days ago i had sex for the first time in three weeks. it was pretty vigorous, and afterwards i was somewhat sore "down there". i've been having red-brownish discharge (the first two days just a little and only slightly tinted; today a lot more, with more pigment), which a hydrogen peroxide test (my underwear fizzed when i poured some on it) confirmed was blood content. overall the discharge smells just like what i naturally secrete when aroused, not blood. i am on the pill, and my period is not supposed to begin for another four days. what is going on???

well, i haven't missed a pill or switched the time i take it at, so i thought you were right about the cervix thing. after reading your message i decided to stop randomly doing kegels as i tend to do throughout the day, and to not rush when i go to the bathroom, in case that was preventing healing or whatever. and i had no discharge, until i got home just now...and there's a lot. it's really weirding me out. it's such a dark color now, and still smells nothing like blood. i've recently started on zoloft to deal with ADD, and it's been affecting my sleeping pattern a lot; maybe this is another random side effect? i guess it's about time to talk to my doctor...

if it was rough sex he could have torn the lining of your vagina and that can sometimes cause bleeding if thats the case its nothing to worry about it will heal on its own but in the mean time take it easy and give it a chance to heal
