Detailed Answer:
Hello dear welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
An extra growth downwards the cervix may be caused by a polyp on cervix. There is not any specific cause but herpes papilloma virus may be a cause. I think colposcopy and biopsy may be needed.
Spotting after menstrual cycle may be a symptom of it.
Hope I have answered the question.
