The so-called contact bleeding refers to a small amount of vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse, gynecological examination and constipation. This symptom is common in cervical eversion, cervical polyp, cervical cancer and other serious diseases, and women with this symptom must not take it lightly.

Contact bleeding "implies" three diseases.

1. Cervix eversion

The main reason is that the cervical tear occurred during delivery, induced labor or abortion, and the surgical repair was not carried out in time. After the scar tissue contracted, cervical eversion appeared.

If chronic cervicitis is caused by reinfection, leucorrhea may be purulent, the amount of leucorrhea will increase obviously, and contact bleeding may occur.

2. Cervical polyps

Cervical polyp is a benign tumor that grows inside or outside the cervical canal. It can occur at any age, but it is more common in childbearing age. Polyps from cervical canal mucosa are bright red, soft and fragile, and can bleed when touched lightly. Polyp has no obvious symptoms when it is very young, but it may be found when doing gynecological physical examination due to other diseases. When the polyp is large, there will be increased leucorrhea, bloody leucorrhea and contact bleeding.

3. Cervical cancer

Cervical cancer is one of the most common female tumors. Contact bleeding may be the only early symptom, which is more common in sexual intercourse and gynecological examination, and it is red or brown. Vaginal bleeding, generally less first and then more, or more and then less, when the disease develops to the middle stage, bleeding increases obviously. Only a few patients were exposed for the first time, and the bleeding was caused by the rupture of arterioles.

Health World Tips experts stressed that once contact bleeding is found, you should go to the hospital in time to check the cause of bleeding and rule out the possibility of malignant lesions, so as not to delay the treatment opportunity.
