Bleeding after non-penetrative orgasm

[laurajaynex]

Hi all

im 18 weeks pregnant and have had no episodes of bleeding thus far. Today I had a non-penetrative orgasm, had a nap and when I woke up and wiped there was quite a lot of pinkish red blood.

i rang the maternity team who said the orgasm wouldn’t have caused a bleed as it was non-penetrative but it seems quite common on this forum? An hour later there is only a tiny bit of blood when wiping and none has transferred to knickers. No pain and it’s definitely lessening.

just looking for some reassurance/advice…? Not sure whether to get checked or just stop worrying!

I'd get checked out just in case. Its probably nothing but it's worth checking to put your kind at rest. I had 2 miscarriages with no bleeding t all MMC. I bleed throughout my pregnancy DC is currently 5. You won't know until you scan.
