Post-Coital Bleeding Definition & Differential Diagnosis
What is Post-Coital Bleeding?• Postcoital bleeding (PCB) is non-menstrual
bleeding that occurs immediately after sexual intercourse. Not only can it be very alarming for patients, but it can also be a sign of a serious underlying pathology.
• Usually, the bleeding originates from the vagina,
or cervix, rather than the endometrium.
