Normally bleeding gums will be due to deposits on the tooth surface, these deposits pushes your gums down and infects them so whenever you brush small prick also it will bleed. So for this scaling and polishing is required
Some women also have bleeding gums issue during there menstrual cycle due to hormones imbalance or during pregnancy..
So visit your dentist to rule out all of these..

In such cases mostly it is due to calculus deposited below your gums or hormonal changes. You should get scaling done and avoid spicy food for a few weeks.
