I had sex yesterday and I bled, is it normal that I still bleed the next day to the point of filling a tampon?

I was in my week of menstruation last week so it really stresses me out not knowing if this is normal...

Hello,
In order to answer as accurately as possible, I need to ask you a few questions.
Is this the first time this has happened?
Do you have pain?
Do you have other associated losses?

Yes this is the first time this has happened to me
I have pain when I urinate
no other loss other than blood no

Vaginal bleeding is not necessarily problematic. Bleeding that occurs after intercourse may be due to irritation or dryness of the mucosa. Again, while in most cases it's not serious, it's recommended to go see a doctor or gynecologist to validate the cause of the bleeding.
So I recommend that you talk to your doctor as soon as possible.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate.

thank you very much that makes me feel better. Is it an irritation, if I put a tampon it will bother or would it be better if I put a sanitary napkin?
I will try to make an appointment tomorrow. Because today was closed for scheduling.

Hello, indeed, it might be better a sanitary napkin to reduce the irritation.
