It is normal to bleed a little after having a pap smear. Usually they will not give you a pap smear will you are on your cycle.How long have you had the doctor?

It could be that your cervix is irritated. When the cervix gets irritated it can mean infection. Sometimes a pap smear by coincidence will pick up infection. I've had it happen a couple times.
I would definitely get back in touch with the doctor to let him know that you are concerned about this bleeding issue and would like to talk to him some more about what this might mean.
Yes, some spotting for a couple days after the pap smear is normal because of the brush that is used to take the cells for analysis. The reason the spotting occurs is because the brush irritates the area.
