Q: Is This Signs of Cervical Cancer Or Vaginal Cancer?

Hi there..I have been worried these days. About a year ago, my private part started to bleed after making love (i'm not sure which part) either vagina or cervix i guess? At first, I thought it was okay, until recently i've read through that the seriousness of a cervical cancer.

1)I started having sex below the age of 18 and I'm now 21.
2)The penis skin(i don't know what should i call it Embarassed

) of my boyfriend
is rather long and he didn't bother to cut it short.
3)I have vaginal fluids coming out ..I think it's white but with some blood. Is this normal to women?
4)Sometimes, but not everytime, I had bleeding in my private part after making love. And I do not experience any pain during the intercourse.
5)Can holding too heavy things cause vaginal bleeding or cervix bleeding?

if you are concerned you should speak to your doctor. i bled sometimes during sex when i was pregnant and it was a cervical erosion.

most, if not al,l women have vaginal fluids. it is the vagina's natural lubrication and keeps it clean. however, it shouldn't be blood stained.

my best advice is to make an appointment with your doctor to ease your mind.

good luck!

I agree with beckster.

You're always supposed to have some vaginal fluid, but not necessarily with blood. It's usually white or clear.

A lot of things can cause vaginal bleeding. It is often on oncoming period, a scratch from a fingernail, or a rip from not being lubricated enough during sex. I have never heard of heavy lifting causing vaginal bleeding.

You need to talk to your ob-gyn though. Only she can tell you if something is wrong or not. You're supposed to see her every year starting when you turn 18 or when you first have sex, whichever happens first.

Chances are low that it is cervical cancer. Even lower if you are a virgin. However, in your first post, you said you bleed after lovemaking. Which makes you not a virgin.

To find out the causes of the bleeding, you need to see your doctor and get a pap smear. Whatever the cause is, it can be taken care of relatively quickly. Even if you have some pre-cursor to cervical cancer, like dysplasia (does not mean you have cervical cancer), it is taken care of easily.

I have had cervical cancer, it is a simple cancer to get rid of - but you have to actually go to the doctor. So please make an appointment with your doctor for an annual exam.
