Vaginal bleeding during sex especially in certain positions like doggy, can be concerning, but it’s not always serious.

First, consider the following questions:

Is the bleeding frequent or heavy?

Is it accompanied by pain or discomfort?

Are you well lubricated and fully relaxed?

Does it only happen during deep penetration?

The doggy position allows for deeper thrusts, which can cause the penis to hit the cervix, this irritation may lead to light bleeding. However, if it happens consistently or is accompanied by other symptoms, there might be underlying issues like:

Cervical irritation

Fibroids

Polyps

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)

Infections (e.g., yeast infections or STIs)

🔍 What to do?
Try switching to gentler positions and use a water-based lubricant to reduce friction. But if the bleeding continues, please see a gynecologist for a proper check-up.
