okay so I was on birthcontrol for last 2 years, and while on it my boyfriend and I would have sex, but immediately afterwards I would bleed and then continue to spot through out the rest of the month until my next period and it would go away. So i decided to get off birthcontrol after seeing my gyno. to see if that was the answer but my problem is still persisting. At least 75% of the times that my boyfriend and I have sex i bleed and then continuiously spot and don't stop until my next period, I've seen my gyno. and in fact my mother is one too but no one seems to take this problem seriously, they say to give my body time its changing, mind you i am 28 and have been off birth control for 1 years! PLEASE someone with any insight help me or lead me in the right direction, i am at my wits end!!!!! is this a problem or just my body?

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
Bleeding or spotting after intercourse could relate to infective, uterine, ovarian or cervix issues. Consider requesting your treating gynecologist for a vaginal smear, PAP smear, hormonal tests and ultrasound scan to see what could be the underlying problem. If these fail to show any abnormality, then it can be said that your body is still getting adjusted to changes. But, if these detect any abnormalities, then you need to be on the treatment as indicated by the test results.
