Unless you're on your period, you shouldn't bleed at all following a pap smear except for possibly a small amount of spotting. If you had a biopsy of the cervix, you may have some bleeding for a few days. If you have any concern about the amount of bleeding, contact your health care provider.
due to cervical erosion, or ulcer.
A grazed cervix is when there is cut or graze on the cervix that may bleed. This is caused by childbirth, sexual intercourse and occasional check ups.
At 39 weeks, it's normal to be in labor. An exam of the cervix could stimulate the uterus.
no but sometimes i do
NO female should EVER bleed after sex!! If you are letting a partner be so rough with you that you bleed, you need to tell the guy STOP IT. Most likely, he is hitting your cervix and making it bleed. The problem is, the cervix does not like to be hurt. The tissue changes---meaning the tissue that's healing starts to grow back in weird ways. There can also be cervical erosion where the tissue is chronically "hurt". When the cervix is hurt like that it can cause cervical cancer! STOP this guy from hurting you!! That is not good sex!
See your doctor as soon as possible. This can indicate the possibility of other issues, such as cysts, in your cervix or uterus, etc. It is not normal to bleed that long.
The doctor will tell you when you have an exam and then you will go in for an outpatient surgery to open it.
A cervix that is long thick and closed or admits only a fingertip
the doctor would perform a vaginal exam and inspect the cervix and palpate the height of the uterus depending on the time of the last period.
its not a period because you do not ovulate. but you can spot for a very long time and its because your losing the lining of you cervix. i bleed for about a month, but it was worth it. the second round gets better
No, but a pap smear is usually part of a pelvic exam. In a pap smear, cells are scraped from your cervix. In a pelvic exam, the doctor inserts her fingers into your vagina and feels your reproductive organs.
It doesn't mean anything medically; it's just an observation that explains any difficulty that the examiner had in locating your cervix during the speculum exam. Having a longer-than-average ndistance from the opening of the vagina to the cervix, or having a uterus that leans to the back or to the front, will not affect your personal health.
