Birth Control And Irregular Bleeding Posted: 06-22-07 02:40am
the past three times i have had
unprotected sex with my boyfriend, i have
bled. the first time it was kind of a lot
of blood, the next two times it was a
little less. i have just started using
birth control, about a week and a few days
ago, so i literally just started. could i
be bleeding because of the birth control?
i just dont get it because i only bleed
after i have sex and no other time, can
the bleeding still be because of the birth
control?

The bleeding could be from your cervix, it
could be from slight tearing. There's no
way for us to know for sure.
It's not likely that it's from the pill,
since you say it is only when you have
sex, although it is normal to have some
spotting in the first few months of taking
the pill.
The bleeding could be because he's hitting
your cervix and it is already
irritated/sore for some other reason.
You should see your doctor/gynecologist
and they can check it out to see if they
can find the cause. It is not normal to
bleed every time you have sex. Many women
never bleed during sex - including the
first time.
