    Bleeding during sex...can anyone explain or advise please?

    I'm 19 and I was a virgin up until Feb 2011. Since then I've had sex with my boyfriend many times, but we tend to have weekends together and have sex a few times, then we don't have sex for a week or 2, then again we will have sex, then leave it another week or 2 because of work and studies.

    But I've noticed recently that when we do leave it a while and finally have sex, my vagina can be a bit sore/tender but then when we get into it I don't feel any pain. Except afterwards I sometimes find blood or when I've gone to the bathroom, my knickers have small blood stains. I don't know the reason for this. Whether it does happen or whether I may have some infection.

    My boyfriend never slept around before me and I know he hasn't slept with anyone else while we've been together, nor have I, so I don't see that I could have caught anything from him.

    I know you bleed after sex the first few times it happens, but I didn't know if it would still carry on months down the line.

    Can anyone help a worried girl at all?

    Thanks

    Does it feel like you are drying out during sex.
    When he pulls his penis out is it slippery.

      Use more lubricant. He bringing you to orgasm one or more times before penetration would probably help as your body will relax and your body will be more ready for the penetration. Extend your foreplay to make this happen.

        Im the same way with my fiance! We spend weekends togather about every other weekend... So we tend to have alot of sex in 2 days... I use to bleed just a little bit, but I think thats because hes a little larger... It hasnt done it lately... But yeah using more lube should help the problem!

          Have you been to a gynaecologist yet?I guess every woman would be a little sore or even have some blood-stained mucus after intercourse if a long period from the previous "session" had passed,but actual spots of blood?Is it painful during sex?
