pinkish mark on white duvet after sex

I don't think you should be worried but you do need to visit your GP for a check up. It's never wise to ignore blood.

Thank you, vampire. I avoid going to the doctor unless absolutely necessary but I suppose I suspected this was something that merited a GP visit, however reluctant I am.

It's always best to play safe in this situation.

It may well be due to vaginal atrophy, where the vaginal tissues are more friable after the menopause and bleed more easily. Always best to see the GP and they can check your cervix and perform a smear if due/indicated.

Vaginal atrophy seems the most likely cause and a trip to the GP could sort this out easily. However it happened to a friend of mine and she was investigated. To cut a long story short, it turned out the blood was from her husband who didn't know at the time that he had kidney problems.

I'm with Liz here. You both need to get it checked out. Could as easily be him as you!

It could indeed by him rather than you. I don't intend to reveal personal experiences here, but the one-off use of a condom can help identify which of you it is. Then you can decide which of you might need further investigation.

just about to say that grannyticktock as it was the case with my OH and I .

Thank you everyone. I hadn't thought it might be him! No sign of anything amiss since so I'm not too worried but will get it checked out anyway.

Is it yours or your partners? Sorry but that's an issue I have at the moment, I thought it was me but is him, he is on cancer treatment but they have said it has nothing to do with that so separate investigations needed. Be sure before you act, sorry brutal but honest
