Dear Confused,

 

I'm not a physician, but from what I know bleeding like that after sex is not normal and it is very important that you see a gynecologist right away.  The bleeding can be a sign of a number of problems ranging from not serious (polyps on your cervix) to something very serious.

 

If you've never seen one or are anxious about it, it may help to read my article, "5 Strategies for Sailing Through Your Pap Smear."
