The symptoms which you are having is postcoital bleeding might be due to numerous reasons, Do not neglect once consult gynaecologist for proper evaluation …
hello zindagi acharya,
You are experiencing bleeding during intercourse, which usually suggests either local tissue irritation (yoni vyatha due to Pitta dushti) or a sensitive cervical lining (Garbhashaya grathita or erosion). It may not always be serious, but it must be addressed gently. From an Ayurvedic perspective, it begins with accumulated āma (undigested toxins) causing inflammation and heat (Pitta vriddhi) in the reproductive tissues.
So, we begin by correcting digestion and internal cleanliness, and then focus on stabilizing the uterine environment.
medications :
Āmapachana (first 5 days): Hingwashtak Churna – ½ tsp with warm water after food, twice daily Trikatu Churna – ½ tsp with honey, once daily before breakfast (Follow light diet: moong, lauki, warm water, no curd/milk/fried foods) From Day 6 onward (Main Treatment – 45 days): Ashokarishta – 15 ml with 15 ml warm water after food, morning and evening Chandraprabha Vati – 2 tablets twice daily after meals Shatavari Churna – 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime This will reduce inflammation, heal cervical tissues, and regulate hormonal imbalance.
Investigations (only if not done recently):
Pelvic Ultrasound – to check for cervical erosion, fibroids, or polyps Pap smear test – to rule out local infection or cervical abrasion
If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, Regards, Karthika
And if you have any report,then please share details of those reports…

HELLO ZINDAGI ACHARYA,
Bleeding during or after sexual intercourse (called post coital bleeding) is abnormal and not part of a healthy sexual experience. It usually points to an issue with the vagina, cervix or uterus.
Even small amounts of blood seen during intercourse- on your partner, clothes or after wiping- should be evaluated, especially if it happens repeatedly
In Modern medicine, it may happen due to
FRICTIONAL TRAUMA= lack of lubrication, no foreplay, rough intercourse, or tight vaginal opening causing tears
INFECTION= yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis, chlamydia, gonorrhoea, HPV (common in young women)
CERVICAL EROSION OR POLYP= the mouth of uterus (cervix) becomes fragile and bleeds easily
HORMONAL ISSUES= low estrogen can thin vaginal tissues, making them fragile
OTHER CAUSES= fibroids , uterine lining issues, IUD side effects, or rarely cancerous changes
In Ayurveda, this is understood under Yoni vyapad (vaginal disorders) and Rakta pitta (bleeding disorder) due to Pitta dosha aggravation and sometimes vata vitiation
TREATMENT GOALS -stop bleeding=immediate concern -heal the internal tissues= so that no repeated trauma occurrs -remove any infection= if present, must be cleared -restore balance in body= to avoid recurrence -improve vaginal health= lubrication, elasticity, healing -reduce stress/anxiety= often worsens sexual discomfort
INTERNAL MEDICATIONS
1) LODRASAVA= 15ml twice daily after meals =stops bleeding and tones uterus
2) PRAVAL PISHTI + MUKTA PISHTI= 125 mg each with honey for 21 days =cooling , stop pitta induced bleeding
3)BOLBADDHA RAS= 125 mg twice daily for 2 weeks after meals =stops bleeding, improves clotting
4) KAMDUDHA RAS= 125 mg with honey after breakfast for 30 days =cools and heals mucosa
EXTERNAL TREATMENT
1) TRIPHALA DECOCTION= wash genital area once daily =cleanses, anti-bacterial, healing
2)YASHTIMADHU DECOCTION= use as a vaginal wash or sitz bath =soothing, heals mucosa
3)NEEM+ TURMERIC DECOCTION= twice a week wash =antiseptic, removes infection
4) COCONUT OIL + TURMERIC PASTE= apply outside vaginal lips =heals irritation , itching
DIET AND LIFESTYLE
COOLING FOODS= cow’s milk, ghee, coconut water, cucumber, pomegranate, Amla, buttermilk
SWEET FRUITS= ripe banana, grapes, papaya, figs, (avoid unripe)
WHOLE GRAINS= rice, wheat, barley (not spicy or fermented)
HEALTHY FATS= ghee, sesame oil in cooking
HERBS= coriander, fennel, cardamom, mint
AVOID STRICTLY -spicy, fried, and sour foods -caffeine, coffee, energy drinks -alcohol, smoking -overexertion, excessive heat, late nights -stressful situation or confilct
YOGA ASANA(do gentle. avoid any pressure on lower abdomen) -baddha konasana -supta baddha konuşana -setu bandhasana -viparita karani
PRANAYAM -sheetali/sheetkari= cooling breath -nadi sodhana= balancing prana -bhramari= calms anxiety, balances hormones
practice 10-15 minutes daily. don’t practice during bleeding episodes
HOME REMEDIES
1) gulkand+cow ghee (1 tsp+ 1 tsp) daily- cools down internal heat
2)CORIANDER SEED WATER= soak 1 tsp coriander seeds overnight , drink in morning
3) AMLA JUICE(10 ml) + honey= natural antioxidants, tissue healing
4) POMEGRANATE JUICE DAILY= blood purifier, uterine tonic
5) ALOE VERA JUICE (10ml )- helps with healing and hormonal balance
INVESTIGATION- COMPULSORY
PELVIC EXAM(by gynaecologist)
PAP SMERA=to screen for HPV
STD panel= rule out chlamydia, gonorrhoea, trichomoniasis etc
TRANSVAGINAL ULTRASOUND= to check for fibroids, polyps, uterine lining
VAGINAL SWAB CULTURE= check for fungal or bacterial infections
HORMONAL PROFILE= if suspected imbalance (FSH,LH,estrogen, progesterone)
-bleeding during intercourse is not normal, even if painless -don’t ignore it, even ut seems minor. It may be a sign of infection , hormonal issue, or tissue damage -Ayurveda can support, but first get a gynaecological examination -combine both internal + external healing with gentle lifestyle and stress control -keep genital hygiene and always practice safe Sex
DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU

Experiencing bleeding during intercourse can be concerning, and there are multiple potential causes that need careful consideration. In Ayurveda, we look at imbalances in doshas and overall body constitution. However, it’s critical to first rule out any serious medical conditions. Bleeding of this nature might be associated with infections, hormonal imbalances, physical issues like cervical polyps or lesions, or it can be due to something like vaginal dryness.
Immediate advice would be to promptly see a medical professional or gynecologist to rule out any serious conditions like cervical or endometrial issues, and get an appropriate diagnosis from a modern medical perspective.
From an Ayurvedic viewpoint, understanding your prakriti (body constitution) and any dosha imbalances (particularly Pitta-related, which might be causing inflammation or heat) is important. Here are some general suggestions:
1. Dietary Adjustments: Incorporate cooling and soothing foods into your diet, such as cucumbers, watery fruits, coconut water, and aloe vera juice. This can help balance Pitta and reduce inflammation.
2. Herbal Remedies: Herbs like Ashoka and Shatavari can be beneficial in managing reproductive health. These should be taken in consultation with an Ayurvedic practitioner.
3. Hydration: Ensure proper hydration, as dryness might contribute to the issue. Consider natural lubricants during intercourse if dryness is a factor.
4. Lifestyle: Avoid excessive heat, overexertion, and emotional stress, as these can exacerbate any existing Pitta imbalance.
5. Practice Dinacharya: Regular routines and balanced lifestyle can support reproductive health - including proper sleep and stress management techniques like yoga and meditation.
While these suggestions can help with an imbalance, it’s essential to work alongside your healthcare provider to address the immediate bleeding concern. Always prioritize health safety and timely medical assessment in such scenarios.
Experiencing bleeding during intercourse can be concerning and may indicate an underlying issue that needs attention. It’s crucial to prioritize your health and seek medical advice from a healthcare provider to rule out any serious conditions like infections, cervical polyps, or other abnormalities.
In the realm of Ayurveda, understanding your individual constitution (prakriti) and current imbalances is important as it can impact reproductive health. The focus here would be on balancing any dosha imbalances that might be contributing to this issue. One common imbalance related to reproductive issues is Vata imbalance, which can affect the natural lubrication and health of the reproductive tissues.
A practical Ayurvedic approach can include dietary and lifestyle adjustments. Ensure you’re ingesting enough healthy fats and fluids to maintain optimal lubrication and tissue health. Incorporate foods like ghee, sesame oil, and warm soups into your diet, which can nourish and stabilize Vata. Avoid excessively dry, cold, or raw foods that can increase dryness.
Herbal support could be beneficial too. Ashwagandha and Shatavari are two common Ayurvedic herbs known for strengthening the reproductive system. They are available in powdered form and can be taken with warm milk or water, typically once or twice daily, as advised by an Ayurvedic practitioner. However, this should be done under supervision to ensure they are suitable for you.
Regular, gentle abdominal massage with warm sesame oil may also help soothe Vata imbalances and promote circulation in the pelvic area. Practice this a few times a week, using gentle, clockwise motions.
While these suggestions might support overall reproductive health, it’s imperative to consult with a healthcare professional for a clear diagnosis and immediate medical evaluation, to ensure your safety and address any potential concerns promptly.
You just apply coconut oil twice daily in vaginal area Before sexual intercourse apply. White petroleum jelly in vagina area. Take Triphala guggul 1-0-1 after food with water Follow up after 15 days
