No, not every woman does.\n\nThere is sometimes some bleeding because Females have a hymen (slang name "cherry") which is a thin membrane that partially covers the vaginal opening in girls. \n\nSexual activity would usually puncture this membrane which leads to a bit of blood. BUT there are other activities (various sports, injuries, etc) that may puncture the membrane. In these cases, these females will not experience bleeding the first time they lose their virginity.\n\nHope that this helps! :)

it is not uncommon for girls to bleed a little the first time thay have sex. just remember to be gential and make sure the girl is comfortable and willing to try what you want to do. BE READY TO STOP AND ANY TIME FOR ANY REASON. SHE MAY HAVE SAID SHE IS READY AND MAY NOT BE. REMEMBER STOP MEANS STOP AND NO MEANS NO

Well it can be normal and it can not. The good thing about it is it doesn't sound like you have to worry yet. To try and answer your question as well as possible I will give you an idea. Some girls just have a tight vagina, or vaginal cavity naturally, I have had sex with my ex gf's and if you like it a little on the more explosive side, yes you might have a tendency to bleed a little bit. The problem is even after you lose your virginity depending on your body structure your hymen can be more present then in other women and it is very sensitive, thats one thing that will not only bleed but it will swell a little and become bruised. More bleeding can come from stretching of the vaginal cavity. There is a lot of things I know I have experienced and it doesnt sound to me like your in danger. To be on the safe side though if it worrys you enough to write about then go to the doctors.

I don't bleed, never have.\n\nSome girls bleed because their hymen is still intact or present. It's nothing to worry about unless it happens all the time, or it happens long after you lose your virginity.

Many people believe that bleeding after intercourse is a sign of virginity because it proves that the hymen  - a thin, fleshy membrane that partially covers the vaginal opening  - "broke." But not all women bleed the first time they have sex. Not only can hymen tissue simply stretch during penetration, rather than tear and bleed, but it is also very common for the hymen to rip before a woman ever has sex. Physical exercise, like riding a bike or doing gymnastics, injury to the genital area, or inserting a tampon, finger or sex toy into the vagina can all cause the hymen to split. Sometimes there will be discomfort and blood when the hymen tears, or there may be no blood or pain at all. In fact, you may not even know when your hymen breaks. \n\nOn the other hand, post-sex bleeding can occur for a variety of reasons besides a broken hymen, such as different types of infections, polyps of the cervix or abnormal cervical cells, and a tear in the vagina from vigorous sex without enough lubrication. \n\nSo, while a man might assume that a woman who bleeds after sex is a virgin, the only way for him to know for sure is if she tells him.

Yup...it is perfectly normal...albeit kinda embarrasing.  All it is is air that gets compressed during intercourse escaping from the vagina....

That's normal - that is part of your period.  Remember it's not just blood coming out but also dead tissue from the lining of the uterus

You've just finished making love, and you're in that pleasant dream-like state when you go to the bathroom and discover that you are bleeding. Nothing can bring you back to reality faster than vaginal bleeding after sex. Post-coital bleeding can occur for a number of reasons, and is nothing to take lightly. Here's a look at the top 10 causes of vaginal bleeding after sex:\n\nCervical dysplasia: Cervical dysplasia is precancerous changes of the epithelial cells that line the cervix. Risk increases with multiple sexual partners, sex before age 18, childbirth before age 16, or a past history of STDs. Treatment is usually cryosurgery or conisation.\n\nChlamydia: A bacterial infection that is usually transmitted through sexual activity or contact with semen, vaginal fluid, or blood.\n\nGonorrhea: A usually sexually transmitted disease caused by a bacteria. \n\nVaginitis or Cervicitis: Inflammation or swelling and infection of the vagina or cervix. Treatment depends on the cause.\n\nCervical polyps: Cervical polyps are smooth, red or purple, finger-like growths that grow out of the mucuos layer of the cervix or the cervical canal. Cervical polyps are extremely fragile, extending out of the cervix, and easily and painlessly removed.\n\nTrichomoniasis: A usually sexually transmitted disease caused by protozoan. Can also be passed to newborns during vaginal birth by infected mothers. Although rare, transmission is also possible in tap water, hot tubs, urine, on toilet seats, and in swimming pools. May cause vaginitis.\n\nVaginal Yeast Infection: An overgrowth of the normal fungi that inhabits the vaginal area. Common symptoms include itching, burning, and an odorless, white, cheese-like discharge.\n\nEndometritis or adenomyosis: Endometritis is defined by Dorland's Medical Dictionary, 27th Edition as an inflammation of the endometrium (the innermost layer of the uterus). Both conditions are associated with endometriosis. Adenomysis is when endometrial tissue attaches itself to the uterus, or another organ such as the ovaries, and grows outside of the uterus.\n\nUterine polyps: Uterine polyps occur when the endometrium overgrows causing these protrusions into the uterus. It is extremely rare for these growths to grow in a way that is either benign or malignant. Women with uterine polyps frequently experience bleeding between periods (metrorrhagia), other symptoms includes vaginal bleeding after sex, spotting, menorrhagia, bleeding after menopause, and breakthrough bleeding during hormone therapy. Hysteroscopic-guided curettage is the prefered treatment, since the normal D&C is basically an unguided procedure that may miss many of the uterine polyps.\n\nFibroid tumors: Uterine fibroid tumors are usually benign tumors. They are solid masses made of fibrous tissue. Fibroid tumors are rarely malignant. Symptoms of fibroid tumors vary among women, with some women never experiencing any symptoms at all. Women who can wait until menopause will see their fibroids shrink and disappear once their bodies stop producing estrogen. It's important that women with fibroids make sure they never take estrogen, in any form including birth control pills, since estrogen increases fibroid growth. Several treatments are currently available for uterine fibroid tumors from myomectomy and uterine artery embolization to the traditional hysterectomy.\n\nDiagnosing vaginal bleeding after sex is usually a matter of exclusion. Anytime you experience post-coital bleeding or vaginal bleeding after sex call your doctor immediately!

It's called "breakthrough bleeding" and is perfectly normal (especially when you're on the pill.)  I wouldn't worry unless you are experiencing extremely heavy cramping when this happens.  Do a search for breakthrough bleeding on the web and you should find more info...  = )

If your menses have always been this way then it may be "normal" for you.  Sometimes bleeding will change in amount, but hasn't completely stopped.  If I count your days correctly, this is about a week.  Some womens' menses last a week which is normal for them...If you are concerned talk with your gyne about it...\nGood luck...

I am a little unsure with this one...spotting can sometimes be normal, however, if this keeps happening, you might have a hormonal problem, or less likely but still possible, if you have engaged in sexual intercourse, you may have an std. But I wouldn't worry. Probably just a little normal spotting.

This can often happen upon your first sexual contact. You are stretching the walls of your Vagina  and there may well be some trauma to them which cause a little bleeding. It should only be spot bleeding however and if it is any more than that I would go see my doctor. I'm not sure if it is possible to break your Hymen through finger contact however. If you feel pain or consistent bleeding, or even if you feel uncomfortable, go see your Dr. just to feel reassured. Good luck

When I was younger and in my twenties my perods were the same. I would bleed 2 days tops, not very heavy and no cramps to speak of...be greatful....we are the lucky ones. \nMy doctor told me it had to do with hormones and body type and not to worry about it. He told me if I were bleeding heavily then to contact him. He told me I just got lucky.

Spotting after intercourse during pregnancy is very normal, especially in the second trimester. Increased blood flow ( blood volume goes up 40% during pregnancy!), and a sensitive cervix ar the main resons. The cervix ( the 'door' to the womb) is covered with hundreds of little blood vessels. During intercourse, they can rupture when irritated or touched. This isnt a sign of harm and is completely normal. However, if it is heavy bleeding with sharp cramps and pains, call your doctor and go to the ER a.s.a.p. Since your in the fifth month, depending on the week, your technically too far along for a miscarriage and it would now be called pre-term labor.\n\nOther reasons for bleeding after intercourse would be if the mother had Placenta Previa (when the placenta partially or compltely blocks the cerviavl opening.) This is very dangerous to both mother and child, and if this were the case, a routine ultrasound would let you know.\nHope this helps!
