Bleeding after fingered

[fqkesmiles]

Okay so I was fingering myself with 2 fingers, I noticed a few seconds after that I had blood on my fingers. I was wondering why because I wasnt on my period, it was like 12am at the time. Its been about a day now and its been heavy bleeding, I woke up around 3am and it leaked on my bed. Is this normal or should I see a doctor? It doesnt hurt when it bleeds.

Hi fqkesmiles,

While it's possible to accidentally scratch or tear something when you masturbate that way, usually that only results in a small amount of blood. If the heavy bleeding doesn't stop, and doesn't seem to be your period, you'll want to check in with a healthcare provider.

Its been around a day and 3 hours, what do I do?

I'm afraid to tell my parents aswell, so I want to make sure. I havent had my period this month and on my period I usually have heavy bleeding, although there is more blood this time. Is there a way to make sure I'm not on my period? I don't usually get cramps while im on it. It started bleeding 2 days ago at 12am, It's still bleeding. I'm really worried

It sounds pretty likely this is probably your period, but there's really no way to be sure, I'm afraid.

But if you didn't feel a lot of pain when you were masturbating, it is very unlikely you hurt yourself and much more likely that the uterine contractions that often occur during masturbation and/or orgasm finally got your sluggish period started.

I meant to say 12pm, does that make a difference or do you still think I'm on my period? I didnt feel pain at as when I was masturbating, it just suddenly started to bleed.

The time of day doesn't really matter here; I think regardless of the time this happened, this is likely to be your period. As Heather said, though, we just can't know for sure.

Hey! So it stopped bleeding a day or two ago, I thought nothing of it, but it just started bleeding again. Is this bad?

[fqkesmiles]

The blood is much less and it looks more liquidy

Do you ever find that your periods ease off a bit and then start up again? If so, it could be that. If you're having unexplained bleeding that isn't normal for you and doesn't stop after a day or two though it may be worth seeing a healthcare provider just to double check that everything is okay.
