If you notice spotting or bleeding after sexual intercourse, especially a few days after your menstrual period, it may be due to several possible causes. These include hormonal imbalances, cervical or uterine abnormalities, infections, or conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
It is advisable to undergo a thorough evaluation, which may include the following hormonal tests:
• Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
• Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
• Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH)
• Progesterone
• Prolactin
• Testosterone
If you also experience spotting before, during, or after your period, these investigations can help identify the underlying cause. The results should be reviewed and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional, who will recommend the appropriate management or treatment plan.
