This is a truly a qu. for a friend of mine - I'm married! Was looking for ideas or suggestions.
She has just started a v. new relationship with a guy she is really keen on - but it's v. early stages. He's quite a catch according to her.
Anyway, they had sex for the first time and she bled a bit afterwards. She assumed she was just starting her period and that's what she told him.
She went to the drs and has been told she has a small cervical erosion & its nothing to worry about. She's been referred to an ob/gyn specialist.
However the Dr said that she is likely to bleed a bit after sex with this erosion (no idea if this is right just repeating).
So here is the question:
how can she deal with it?
She doesn't want to not have sex with him. She also doesn't want to tell him about the cervical erosion.
(FWIW I told her she should tell him and that was the end of my advice. I had no better ideas other than don't have sex with him).
She is very adamant she doesn't want to tell him - she says the name of it sounds really serious, he may think it is sexually transmitted disease related and she thinks it's too early to spoil it with heavy medical chat. (I think it's more to do with her wanting to see him as perfect).
Any ideas beyond mine of tell him or don't sleep with him? Is there anything else she can say to him to explain the bleeding?
