A member asked:
What would cause my cervix to bleed after a pap test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: A pap smear can cause temporary spotting considering the stiff brushes & rigid spatulas we use for sampling now. Spotting is common especially if pregnant. If you have persistent bleeding, check with your doc & ensure your test was normal.
