Does bleeding after a pap smear mean chlamydia?

Bleeding after a Pap smear is not necessarily a sign of chlamydia. There are a number of possible causes for post- Pap smear bleeding, including cervical irritation, inflammation, or injury. However, if you experience persistent or heavy bleeding after a Pap smear, it is important to see your doctor for further evaluation to rule out any underlying conditions, including sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like chlamydia.
