Bleeding post sex

I was wondering if anybody has experienced irregular vaginal bleeding after sex and after a bowel movement pre period? Smear clear, also given colposcopy to check cervix which was clear. Had an ultrasound which came back clear, other than possible adenomyosis (fortunately I have pain or other symptoms associated with this condition and womb normal size). I get spotting after sex and vaginal spotting after a bowel movement before I get a period. On HRT, but not vaginal estrogen. Has anybody experienced this? Because tests are essentially clear my GP has no further action on this and can’t explain it. I wondered if anybody else has experienced this? It makes me reluctant to be intimate and makes me worry it’s going to happen every time.

Try vaginal orstrogen. I had this. No cause found. Vaginal orstrogen helped. You've been investigated and you've nothing to lose by trying

@Musicaltheatremum do you still get it? I’m not worried it’s anything sinister as that’s been checked it just plays on my mind every time I’m intimate! Thanks for replying 😊

No everything settled. I did change my hrt as my bleeding came independently of intercourse as well as after. Real pain! I'm 62 now.
