Uretheral bleeding after sex (serious answers only please)?!


Question: Uretheral bleeding after sex (serious answers only please)?
I spoke with a trusted family member and they said ill be fine in time , and im embarrased to get a check up without compelling reason to fear.

Should I be worried if after sex with strong emphasis on 'pushing' to encourage squirting, I think I broke a blood vessle (it dosent hurt) and im hoping someone has valid advice for this sensitive subject

Answers:

It depends on what kind of bleeding we're talking about. If it's just a couple drops of blood straight after sex, then it may be that you've simply torn the skin (you should feel this though). Bleeding after or during sex can also be a sign of Chlamydia though. It definitely worth getting a check up if you're concerned. You don't need to be embarrassed - it happens to LOTS of women. :]

If it's bleeding when you pee (or straight after you pee) then it could be a sign of a urinary tract infection.

Either way, if you have popped a blood vessel or torn the inside of your urethra, you will be much more susceptible for UTIs in the first place. Drink lots of water, and go and get yourself some cranberry capsules if you can. Don't drink cranberry juice (heaps of people will tell you this is a way to ward off UTIs), because it's very high in sugar and the bad bacteria around your "girl bits" really love sugar. Wash yourself well with a soap for sensitive skin, and urinate straight after anything touches your vulva (including sex, or after you shower).

Seriously though, the whole area of the vulva is very easy to injure but very quick to heal. If it's just a tear, it should be fine in about 3-4 days. Be a bit more gentle next time. :]
