A member asked:

Had pap smear done yesterday. told i had slight discharge and blood. im not close to my period, i had sex the day before. could it be a latex reation?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sex + exam= contents: You have two vaginal entries including a pap smear scraping and intercourse which can cause the discharge that you noted. It is NOT a latex reaction.
