A member asked:
What does "delicate" cervix mean? and my cervix is imflammed and pap hurt/with blood. he says most likely not cancer just infection. im worried

Vaginal exam: Although you would have to ask your gynecologist what they mean by "delicate", this term has been used to describe cervical tissues that are fragile, bleed easily and have been disrupted by some inflammatory process. If your doctor says not cancerous it is good news and you can be successfully treated and cured with antibiotics. Good luck.
