my boyfriend was fingering me and masturbating me, while he was doing it, i bleed, not too much, but there was light blood spots (small)for 3 days. is it dangerous?? should i be worried and why i did bleed ?

Most likely, what’s going on is totally normal and nothing to worry about. A few things could have caused this bleeding: 

Your boyfriend’s fingers may have stretched your hymen, which is a thin tissue that stretches over the opening of some people’s vaginas. Sometimes this can cause the hymen to bleed, which is why some people see blood the first time they have penis-in-vagina sex, or put something in their vagina (like a finger or sex toy). This is totally normal and should go away within a few days.

You might also just be having spotting (light bleeding and/or brown discharge that can happen when you're not on your period). Spotting is pretty normal and usually harmless. And it could be totally unrelated to the fingering.

Your boyfriend may have also scratched the inside of your vagina or your cervix, which can cause bleeding. This might heal on its own. But it could become a problem if bacteria gets into the scratches and causes an infection.

Some vaginal infections or STDs can also lead to spotting or bleeding.

So if you have any pain, discomfort, or itching that doesn’t go away, or if the bleeding keeps happening, see a doctor or nurse — like the ones at your nearest Planned Parenthood health center — to make sure everything’s okay.
