WHAT ARE THE ODDS OF HAVING CERVICAL CANCER AFTER 8 YEARS OF NORMAL REG. PAPS? HAVING SLIGHT SPOTTING AFTER INTERCOURSE AND AM WORRIED ABOUT CERVICAL CANCER. MY DOC ISN'T WORRIED BUT I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY TEST OTHER THAN A REGULAR EXAM AND PAP SMEAR.INTERNET SAYS CERVICAL ECTROPION IS COMMON IN BC PILL USERS, LIKE ME. ANYONE KNOW IF THIS IS COMMON? CAN YOU FEEL IT?

You can not feel cervical cancer. Have you had a thin prep pap smear done? If you don't like what your doctor is saying get a second oppinion. Don't play around with your life. It is too short.

I'm no expert, but I think sometimes women can spot after intercourse and it means nothing. If you don't trust your doc, definitely get a 2nd opinion. Did the doc give you some possible explanations? Do you use a birth control that could cause this? Rough sex can lead to spotting too;)
