Daily Vaginal Bleeding? Help?!


Question: Daily Vaginal Bleeding? Help?
Hi. What could cause the following?
I am 26 years old. For the past 2 or 3 months I've noticed that after my period ends and my husband and i have sex, we find blood on us, red not brown. The vaginal bleeding continues for days and days very light. Sometimes only see it when i wipe and other times its in panties with discharge(brown mucousy). This bleeding or spotting may very well last until my next period but i havn't kept record yet. This is the first time I really payed attention. This last period ended 9 days ago and I'm still spotting with the discharge. I haven't had sex in a week. What could this be? I do have an IUD. It's been in for over a year now with no probs so far unless its the cause of this....what do you think?
I am going to see my doctor. I just want to be prepared for possibilites. Thanks

Hi...
About 12% of women have the copper IUD removed because of increased menstrual bleeding or cramping.2 Women may also experience spotting between periods. But after about 3 months of increased bleeding or spotting, the LNg IUD reduces menstrual cramps and bleeding by an average of 90%.

Really your doctor will be the only one who could tell but some more causes could be endometritis, under active thyroid, ovarian cyst, PID, or PCOS. Really sorry the list is endless...!

Hope it all works out for you.
