Bleeding that occurs in the first half of pregnancy is common (20-30%). of women experience this. Bleeding can occur in early pregnancy due to the following factors:
Some type of infection in the pelvic cavity or urinary tract may cause bleeding.
After intercourse some women may bleed because the cervix is very tender and sensitive. You should discontinue intercourse until you have been seen by your doctor. This is to prevent any further irritation—having normal sexual intercourse does not cause a miscarriage.
With this being said, bleeding in the first trimester is something that should be brought to your doctors attention immediately. Just as it could be something caused by intercourse it could also be a sign of miscarriage. Please contact your doctor and keep us posted.
