Bleeding after sex, external not internal though :$

Could this be related to thrush?
Not sore during or upon entry (sorry), which it was the first time as hadn't done it for a few weeks and was a wee bit tighter, this caused a little bleed round the edges as well.
But this time didn't feel any discomfort, yet went to toilet after and there was spots of blood when I wiped, like cutting oneself shaving that kind of pinprick spotting, defintaly not from inside I am pretty sure.

Anyway could this be related to thrush, have been a bit uncomfortable down there today aswell, a bit itchy. Had thrush in last pregnancy on and off, treated through GP, but don't remember bleeding with it, but I may have done it was a while ago now.

Thank you for any advice in advance.

If it's on the outside hun it's probaly from a bit a friction. Using nappy cream will help it heal and soothe any iritation. Wouldn't rule out the trush though, cant hurt to speak to your GP.

Feel better x

Thank you, never thought about friction, never been an issue but with being dryer down there it is a probability.
Thank you, will get some nappy cream.

Haven't had this but yes, being preg can make you a bit drier down there depending on hormones so maybe invest in some lube before you attempt again? Intimate massage oil can be a nice way to get into the mood as well, so win-win scenario!!

Hope it heals up for you - my biggest prob is braxton hicks after orgasm and in general sex is starting to become a bit uncomfortable now we're well into final trimester. still, determined to make the most of last few weeks without a baby to interrupt the mood

Don't blame you, we were still having sex whilst I was pregnant with dd the night before I gave birth. Glad we did to be honest, as it was a good 4-5 months before we did it again .

Definatly getting some lube in thank you.
