When Pink Cervical Mucus Is Not a Good Sign?
- Cervical erosion.
Cervical erosion can be caused by hormonal disorders, surgical interventions (abortions, surgeries), cervical or uterine inflammations. A woman can’t diagnose this disease herself. It’s detected only during regular gynecological examination. However, the first symptom of cervical erosion, which can be easily noticed, is a mucus-like discharge with blood right after sexual intercourse or any mechanical manipulations.
- Chronic endometritis and endocervicitis.
Pink mucus, typical for these conditions, looks like diluted blood and usually happens before or after period. Such discharge has an unpleasant odor.
- Inflammations.
Along with menstrual disorders, pink vaginal discharge is often a sign of inflammatory processes in female reproductive organs.
- Polyps and fibroids.
These conditions may be accompanied by both pink and bright red, scanty and abundant bloody discharge.
Summing up, it should be mentioned that only a gynecologist can determine the real cause of your pink discharge after a thorough examination and necessary laboratory tests. No online consultations, recommendations from friends or other doubtful diagnostic methods are acceptable.
