Cervicitis is an inflammation of the cervix, the lower end, and the narrow of the uterus that communicates with the vagina.

Possible symptoms of cervicitis identified bleeding between menstrual changes, pain during a cervical exam or during sexual intercourse, and abnormal vaginal discharge. However, it is also possible to have cervicitis and not have any signs or symptoms.

Cervicitis is often the result of a sexually transmitted infection, such as chlamydiosis or gonorrhea. Cervicitis can also manifest itself from non-infectious causes. Successful treatment of cervicitis involves treating the underlying cause of the inflammation.
