Bleeding after a gynecological examination is mostly caused by certain gynecological diseases in women. Some gynecological diseases are very likely to cause bleeding after a gynecological examination. Generally speaking, the following diseases may cause bleeding after a gynecological examination:

1. Cervical erosion: Cervical erosion is the most common manifestation of chronic cervicitis. The cells in the eroded part of the cervix are very easy to fall off and become thinner, so some cervical erosions also cause contact bleeding. It is also possible to bleed after a gynecological examination, especially in patients with moderate and severe cervical erosion.

2. Cervical cancer: Bleeding after a gynecological examination may also be a dangerous sign of early cervical cancer. The amount of bleeding is not much and the color is bright red. However, if it is early-stage cervical cancer, the amount of bleeding may increase, and even blood clots may flow out. This is because the cancerous cervical cell tissue has eroded and become brittle, and the blood supply to the affected area is good. Therefore, when the cervix is ​​directly hit, it will rupture and cause bleeding.

The above is an introduction to the causes of bleeding after gynecological examination. I hope it will be helpful for women to understand. If a woman experiences bleeding after a gynecological examination, it often means that she has a gynecological disease. It should be taken seriously, the cause should be actively sought, and effective measures should be taken to treat it to avoid causing more serious harm to the body.
