Pain during sexual intercourse and blood-tinged discharge, what could be the cause?

Patient's question:

Yesterday was the 4th day of my menstrual period, and the period usually lasts about 10 days. During sexual activity, I felt pain and had bloody discharge. Although it wasn't much, it scared me. I'm afraid it might be inflammation or something worse. But I had a pathology biopsy 5 months ago, and everything was fine then. I don't know if this bleeding means the cervix has become malignant. I really don't want to go to the hospital for such tests. And I heard that pathology checks can be done every six months. I've already been tortured by repeated gynecological inflammation. I've tried every method, but nothing has worked. I don't know if I really have to go to the hospital for a check-up? Is it definitely serious? This is my first time asking.

Doctor's answer:

During sexual activity, if vaginal bleeding occurs due to contact, accompanied by lower abdominal pain, it is important to consider whether it is caused by acute or chronic cervical inflammation. It is recommended that you undergo a gynecological examination and a secretion test to determine if it is acute or chronic cervical inflammation, or other gynecological inflammatory conditions that cause contact pain and bleeding.
The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for an examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay close attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
