Bleeding during sex

Unread post by Eve J. »

Okay so my boyfriend and i had sex today and out of no where i started bleeding. It was alot of blood, my whole pillow was covered. But something gooey also came out. It was shaped like a little bean. I also bleed everytime we have sex but its never alot of blood. Can it be a blood clot or a miscarriage ( even though i dont think i was pregnant). Please help

If you have been bleeding every time you have been having sex, it's been past time to see a sexual healthcare provider. That is a common sign of something being up, whether that something is a sexually transmitted infection or something like cervical or uterine polyps.

Since this has been happening for a while, it seems unlikely to be something new like a miscarriage. But given the heaviness of the bleeding, I'd strongly suggest that you get yourself to healthcare TODAY, now. I would go to either the emergency room or to an urgent care. Can you get yourself to one of those places?

Okay, then what you will need to do is call an ambulance. You will call 911, tell them it is a medical emergency, and then answer their questions from there.

Soaking a pillow with unexplained bleeding of any kind is a medical emergency. I know it can be daunting if you haven't done it before, but something like this is potentially very serious and requires care.
