How many days after bleeding from cervical cancer screening can I have sex?

In recent years, more and more women have been suffering from gynecological diseases such as cervical cancer. Therefore, women generally need to do cervical cancer screening every year. Cervical cancer screening is simply to collect some secretions from the female cervix. Sexual intercourse is prohibited before the examination. Most people will experience bleeding after the examination, but if you want to have sex, you usually need to wait for about a week without bleeding before having sex.

Who needs cervical screening?

Among the high-risk factors for cervical cancer, women who marry and have children early or have a history of miscarriage are all high-risk groups. Or women who have a history of sexually transmitted diseases or have had multiple sexual partners are more likely to develop cervical cancer. Therefore, women with these high-risk factors must undergo regular cervical screening.
