Post subject: Hi, I also had an episiotomy and tried to have sex 5 weeks later. I started to bleed at the time. When I went for my six week check I told the doctor and she said I had pulled a stitch. Although the stitches had disolved the skin hadnt quite healed properly by then. Even now nearly six months on I have a little lump which can be quite painful. I would mention it to your Doctor or health visitor.
