No period after lletz?

I had lletz procedure 3 months ago for CIN 2/3 it was successful in that it removed all the cells, however I did get a nasty infection afterwards and ended up on I/V antibiotics in hospital for 3 days.

I have not had a period since though, never missed one before, and not pregnant. I've never wanted my period to appear so much before!

I?ve been looking into this procedure myself on the Internet and apparently post Lletz periods can be slightly earlier or later. Plus, there seems to be a lot on forums like this one in which women mention changes to their menstrual cycles.

Could the bleeding from the procedure have led into bleeding from your menstrual cycle?

I know there?s a very rare after effect called cervical stenosis - scarring on the cervix which causes narrowing and so can block the menstrual flow ? but, as I said, this is RARE. And I don't want to worry you.

I think it is best not to speculate ? though I know that's harder than it looks. I?d put it out of my mind, wait another week and then go to my GP and perhaps they?ll refer you to a gynaecologist.

I do feel for you. Having abnormal cells is stress enough, not even including your added complications. But, it is good that the treatment itself was successful. I really hope things work out. Let us know.
