ok this isnt right. ive had a history of bad periods. For the past couple of years Ive been having spotting or bleeding after sex. A friend says its not normal. What could be causing this to happen ? Its gotten really bad the past 3 months. Can some one give me advice or tell me what i should do.


thanks

I believe this could be cause by a build up of the lining of the uterus, this could also case the bad periods.

I would get to the gyno ASAP. You might have Endometriosis. Or you could have abnormal cells or inflamation in your cervix. This is what I am dealing with right now. I have endometriosis but recently I have been bleeding during sex. I recently had a papsmear and it showed inflammation in my cervix and abnormal cells which could be nothing BUT the doctor is treating me for a bacterial infection and I will have to have paps every 4 mos now.

I came here to post the same topic today. It's never happened to me before, and now it happens about one in three times.

I guess I'll call my doc as well.

Hi there,

You've already been given some fantastic advice, and I really think you should see your doctor.
