Bleeding from Cervix

Hello everyone.  This is my first post here.

My name is Katie and I'm from NE England, Co. Durham.

Over the last few weeks I have been bleeding from the vaginal area.  I fist noticed this when I opened my bowels and there was red blood on the toilet paper and in the loo.  Two weeks later the same is happening.   I strain and I bless from the front.  I read somewhere to feel your cervix with a finger, if it appears smooth then it's not cancerous.  Mine feels smooth.   As soon as I touched it, it produced a lot of blood.    I'm having pelvic pain, lovlwer back pain and what feels like period pain.  I am calling doc first thing.  Does anyone else have similar story?....thank you for taking time to read this.n x

  • Hello KatieB74

    I'm sorry to hear that you've had some unexpected vaginal bleeding recently.

    There could be any number of reasons for the bleeding that you're experiencing but the important thing is to make an appointment to see your GP. Hopefully, you were able to get hold of your GP this morning and you won't have to wait too long to see them. 

    If you'd like to chat with one of our nurses for some support and advice you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm. 

    Best wishes,
