Possibly.  Hitting the cervix can cause some bleeding.  And it may be blood from your uterus that did not come out with your regular period.  There are quite a few possibilities in this situation.  The point is for you to at the very least rule out stds.  You should test if you are having unprotected sex.  Many people get stds from people they trust to be faithful.

Bleeding after sex could be trauma or it can be an std. You should go for testing if you are having unprotected sex.
