Asked for Female | 49 Years
Could recent sex trigger spotting after 1.5-year period hiatus?
Patient's Query
I had spotting after a 1.5 years without a period. I'm 49 years old. I did have sex one week ago so wonder if that could cause the spotting. I have also had menopause symptoms for the past 3 or 4 years
Answered by Dr. Nisarg Patel
It is normal to feel worried if you see spots after not having a period for a long time. At 49, you might be going through the change of life, which can cause bleeding that does not follow a pattern. Having sex can sometimes make spots appear due to hormone changes or thinning of the vagina tissues. If you have been having menopause signs for a few years now, it is likely the cause. Do not worry, but if the spots keep happening or you have concerns, it is always a good idea to talk with a gynecologist.
