Patient's question:
Doctor, after having sex with my husband, there is a small amount of blood flow from my vagina. I took a look myself and noticed some small bumps. Could it be that I have cervical polyps?Doctor's answer:
Cervical polyps are a manifestation of chronic cervical inflammation and are more common in unmarried women. They pose a serious threat to women's health. Do cervical polyps cause bleeding? This is something many women want to know. This condition does have bleeding symptoms, primarily in the form of very small amounts of spotting with bright red blood, or slight bleeding after sexual intercourse. There are several causes of cervical polyps, generally related to sexual activity and poor hygiene. Currently, some young women are also prone to developing them, often linked to early sexual activity and frequent sexual intercourse.
