Abstract: Postcoidal bleeding represents a cardinal sign of different lower tract disorders, which occur also in the absence of
cancer. The study was conducted on 120 patients, complaining of postcoital bleeding. The patients were divided into
two groups, the 1st group with ages between 17-35 years comprising 79 patients and the 2nd group with the ages
between 35-69 years with 41 patients. The 2nd group (aged between 35-69 years) was divided into two subgroups,
namely menstrual patients (n=30) and menopausal patients (n=11). Our results shows that in women under the age
of 35 years of age, the main cause of postcoital bleeding was vaginal ectropion, while in women over the age of 35
years, cervicovaginitis was present. In women who present postcoital bleeding, physical examination and complete
personal pathologies overview should be involved in order to achieve a better treatment and management.
