Hello and welcome to EmpowHer,
The most common cause of vaginal bleeding after sex is friction on the cervix without proper lubrication. Women who are premenopausal or postmenopausal can experience low estrogen levels that cause vaginal dryness ad lead to bleeding after sex.
Other causes can include but are not limited to:
--inflammation of the cervix
--endometrial or cervical cancer.
--pelvic inflammatory disease
--uterine fibroids or polyps
--infection
I highly encourage you to get a pap smear as soon as possible.
Below I have pasted a HER article that talks more in depth about the causes of vaginal bleeding after sex.
