Hi there,I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

When you undergo cervical cauterization, you are expected to have slight bleed for 3 to 5 days and then a peculiar brown discharge continued for 10 to 20 days.

If you have bleeding everyday then you need to add Tranexamic acid preparation and a week-long course of broad spectrum antibiotic like Doxycycline. Please seek prescription support for the same from your treating doctor.

If needed a per speculum and per vaginal examination is advisable if bleeding persists even after medical line of treatment.
PAP smear can be done in such case and if needed a calposcopy will be of help to rule out any other pathology of the cervix.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
