Post Cervitis? What is this?

I had been experiencing spotting after sex. I was tested for everything and the doctor did a colposcopy. They said I don't have HPV, but I have cervitis. What is this and what is it caused by? Thanks!

Hi
I had this too. I believe it is an infection of the cervix that can be caused by a number of things. I don't know if it's sexually transmitted. I was treated with Doxycycline. Are you taking any meds for it?

My cervicitis was not caused by a disease (such as chlamydia, ghonorrhea, herpes, or hpv). My doctor told me it was basically an inflammation of the cervix that is often caused by a STI, but in some cases (such as my case) it can just be caused by trauma, such as frequent sex, a dislodged tampon, and IUD or diaphragm.

I think mine was being caused by rough sex. I also know that my 'insides' are super sensitive -- I'm allergic to latex and they give me yeast infections. After using astroglide a couple of times, I didn't bleed, so the doctor told me to keep using it.

I really didn't have any other symptoms than the spotting. If you've got a white discharge, you really should see a doctor.
