You usually rest for 2-3 days after a cervical biopsy.
The purpose of cervical biopsy examination is mainly to confirm the presence of cervical lesions. Before the cervical biopsy, relevant tests such as routine leukorrhea are needed. If there is vaginal inflammation, it is necessary to wait until the inflammation is under control before performing the test to avoid infection.
The procedure is recommended to be performed within 3-7 days after menstruation is cleared. After taking the biopsy, there may be slight bleeding locally, so it is recommended to take rest and pay close attention to the bleeding. If the bleeding is heavy, you need to go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. Most patients will gradually recover in 2-3 days, so it is generally recommended that patients rest for 2-3 days, depending on their own situation.
Avoid taking sitz bath, vaginal irrigation and sexual intercourse for 1-2 weeks after the examination to prevent infection. Once other discomfort occurs, it is recommended to go to the gynecology department of the hospital.
