Question:
what does it mean when you bleed during sex

Answer:
by Sandra L. Caron: ()
Bleeding can sometimes be related to lack of lubrication - do you think this may be the issue? I think whenever blood is involved in sex (outside menstruation), it is important to have a gynecological exam to be sure there is no infection. I strongly suggest you seek medical attention and find relief from your concern. Best wishes!
