Is Heavy bleeding after first time sex normal?

Sometimes - Yes. Particularly if you, by nature, have heavy bleeding either during menstruation or when you cut yourself. Heavy bleeding is also dependant upon the thickness of the hymen. The thicker it is, the more bleeding is usual. This is because thicker hymens generally contain more blood capillaries. The bleeding, although heavy, is rarely prolonged, is not dangerous and generally heals within 3-5 days. Bleeding should cease within 24 hours. Should bleeding continue after 2 days please consult a physician.

Could you still get your peri od if you are pregnant?

Menstruation is also called menstrual bleeding, menses, catamenia or a period. The flow of menses normally serves as a sign that a woman has not become pregnant. (However, this cannot be taken as certainty, as a number of factors can cause bleeding during pregnancy; some factors are specific to early pregnancy, and some can cause heavy flow.) During the reproductive years, failure to menstruate may provide the first indication to a woman that she may have become pregnant.During pregnancy and for some time after childbirth, menstruation is normally suspended; this state is known as amenorrhoea, i.e. absence of the menstrual cycle.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menstrual_cyclehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menstruation#As_part_of_the_menstrual_cycle


Is it normal to have a heavy menstrual cycle after the Depo-Provera shot?

Bare in mind that the Depo stops your menstrual cycle for several months - you may experience irregular bleeding while on the Depo. Once you come off Depo it takes time for your hormones to regulate again to have a normal menstrual cycle, during this time menstruation can be heavier than normal due to hormonal imbalance.
