Last night my husband and I had sex. Everything was fine today, then about and hour and a half later I went to use the bathroom, and I found blood on the toilet paper I used. It\'s not a lot, but enough. and it\'s been going on for the last 5 and a half hours. My period ended 7 days ago. I\'m in no pain or anything of the sort.Should I be worried?

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
The bleeding after intercourse is not normal at your age. Since you had an abnormal PAP smear, consider getting a repeat PAP smear again (ASAP) along with examination of cervix and vagina. You might need a colposcopy done to visualize the cervix if PAP smear comes abnormal. Visit your gynecologist at the earliest.
Take care.
