I used to have this happen to me on a fairly regular basis. From talks here as well as with my doc, and some experimentation, I've realized three things may have been at play: 1. Nails scratching some part of me, even though my partners all had fairly groomed nails 2. My cervix was getting whacked, which can definitely lead to bleeding, even for a full day 3. Orgasm was pushing older blood out of my uterus
It was not related to any STIs or infections. My cervix was healthy-looking. I was on the NuvaRing at the time, and don't recall if it happened after I switched to the Mirena.
It hasn't happened in a few years, and I don't know why. Perhaps my sex involves a lot less fingering?
