What happens when women bleed after colposcopy? When it comes to bleeding after colposcopy, in fact, it is very normal. The reason why women experience bleeding symptoms after colposcopy can only be understood through understanding the examination operation of colposcopy. First of all, colposcopy mainly uses a colposcope to remove a part of the examinee's cervical tissue, and then sends this part of the cervical tissue for pathological section examination, so as to determine whether the examinee has any disease or lesions, so as to carry out further treatment. Since there is an incision at the cervical opening due to the extraction of cervical tissue, bleeding after colposcopy is naturally a very normal thing. If the examination results show that the woman does not have gynecological inflammation, then there is no need to worry too much, because these post-colposcopy bleeding problems will heal naturally after three to five days. These are all very normal symptoms, and female friends do not need to worry too much. Post-colposcopy bleeding is generally unavoidable and will take about 3 to 5 days to stop. Therefore, in order to avoid inflammation during this recovery period, female friends are advised to pay attention to personal rest and hygiene to avoid bacterial infection and inflammation. In addition, there is no need to worry too much about cervical trauma. As long as the relevant care matters are taken, the risks can be avoided.
