My period ended June 10th and i always get it around the first of the month. About a week and a half ago i had unprotected sex but the guy didnt finish after we realized it was a bad idea. I had PROTECTED sex two nights ago and yesterday morning and it was kinda rough but I wasnt in any pain or anything during. This morning I woke up and I had blood like I started my period. So obviously its like around a week early. What could this mean? Ive never gone to a gynecologist but Im considering it since this kinda freaks me out. Thanks for whatever info you have. =) Im just scared.

It is always a good idea to see your gyno when you become sexually active. So please do that.

Did you not get any of the normal signs that you get before your period is due to start?

When you orgasm, your uterus wall will contract (it is a big muscle after all). These contractions are the same thing you experience as menstrual cramps when your uterus contracts to seperate and break up the lining. So it is not uncommon that a good orgasm shortly before your period can speed up this process and make you start your flow earlier.

It is also possible that it can restart your flow shortly after it stopped, if you orgasm then.

Since you do say it was rough, it can also be bleeding from tearing or if his penis bumped into your cervix, bleeding from there. These are however all lighter and shorter than menstrual flow.

Take care!

I was thinking about it and maybe 4 days ago i was experiencing some pre-menstrual symptoms like breast tenderness and facial breakouts. Ive never had it early before but what you are saying makes sense. Thanks!
