Abstract

This study assesses outcomes of colposcopy referrals for post‐coital, intermenstrual, or other abnormal bleeding with negative oncogenic human papillomavirus and negative to low‐grade cytology. Of 112 cases with median age of 34.5 years, cervical biopsy occurred in 19%, treatment of ectropion in 19%, endometrial sampling in 8%, polypectomy in 4%, and contraceptive change in 2%. No cervical or endometrial neoplasia was detected. Patients with bleeding symptoms and reassuring co‐test may instead attend a general gynaecology clinic.
