Strange: unless you were in an extreme amount of stress, I cannot imagine how a pap smear could possibly push you into menses. are you sure that all you had waa a pap smear? Pap smears tend to entail a very gentle brushing and will not traumatize the cervix although it is possible for you to have some light bleeding.check in with your doctor. Sometimes an abnormal Pap smear will bleed.
