Gynecological examination caused bleeding in the cervix

For women, it is easy to have various gynecological diseases, so it is recommended to go to the hospital for gynecological examinations regularly, so that you can better understand the condition of all aspects of the body. During gynecological examinations, a vaginal dilator is usually used to perform deep vaginal sampling inspections, which may cause bleeding. So what should you do if your cervix bleeds during a gynecological examination? Here is a brief introduction.

1. Cervical erosion and bleeding

For most women, there is cervical erosion, but the severity varies. This is due to the increase of female hormones, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. Bleeding may occur when touched. It doesn't matter as long as the amount is small. Put a sanitary napkin on your jeans and pay attention to private hygiene. Generally, the blood circulation will stop within two days. If the amount is large, you need to use gauze to block the blood circulation first, and then carry out relevant treatment. Pay more attention to hygiene in daily life and use lotion to clean the genitals appropriately.

2. Scrape test for bleeding

During a gynecological examination, a scraping sample will be taken. When using a dilator, the cervix will be damaged and bleeding will occur, which will heal quickly and is not a problem. In addition, if the test results show cervicitis, bleeding may also occur. You can further use colposcopy for examination and use relevant drugs for treatment. You must pay attention to the hygiene of your private parts, wash your underwear frequently every day, and expose it to the sun.

3. Cyst

If a cyst develops in the vagina, bleeding may also occur. Although it is usually painless and itchy, the cyst looks large and is prone to disease, and the difficulty of removal will also increase. Therefore, it is recommended to remove it as soon as possible. The bleeding will be slightly larger after removal. At this time, gauze should be used to activate blood circulation. The gauze should be removed within 24 hours, and oral antibiotics should be taken to prevent infection.

So what should you do if your cervix bleeds during a gynecological examination? It depends on the actual cause. Some of them are caused by severe cervical erosion or cervical cysts, which lead to bleeding. In these cases, cleaning and application of medicine or removal of cysts are required. Some bleeding is caused by equipment trauma during inspection, which is not a big deal. Generally, the amount is small and will disappear quickly. In addition, during the inspection, samples need to be taken for puncture biopsy to see if there are any problems such as vaginitis. In the case of heavy bleeding, be sure to inform the doctor immediately and check at any time to prevent infection.
