Precancerous changes of the cervix usually do not cause pain or symptoms. Symptoms do not usually appear until abnormal cervical cells become cancerous and invade nearby tissue. When this happens the most symptoms are:
- Abnormal vaginal bleeding. Bleeding may start and stop between regular menstrual periods, or it may occur after sexual intercourse, douching or a pelvic exam.
- Bleeding after menopause
- Increased vaginal discharge
