A member asked:
Does it mean anything if i bleed during my pap smear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cervix fragile: It is not unusual for a woman to spot or have a little light bleeding when a pap smear is done. This is because some of the cells of the cervix can be fragile, and the brush used in the pap can make those cells bleed.
