hi, after the birth of my daughter (now 4) i had a smear test and it showed abnormal cells, i attended the colposcopy clinic at local hospital and ended having some treatment, i was then to have a smear every 6 months for a few years. im ashamed to say after i got the all clear and everything was back to normal i cancelled my appointments and opted for the annual smear with my gp. a few months back i had to go to my gp as i was bleeding heavily ALL the time, for around three months i was bleeding for approx. 3 weeks then it would stop for a few days then start for another 3 weeks etc. i had a smear, urine and blood test and everything came back fine. it settled down but now im bleeding again although not nearly as heavily and it usually starts after sex. went to gp today and he is refering me to colposcopy. has anyone else experienced similar and what happened? im dreading going, i hate it! also, do you think gp has refered me as he suspects something and didnt want to say? he just said that the examination i will get there will be more thorough than a regular smear. i feel generally well and dont feel like there is something wrong with me.
p.s. apologies if i have colposcopy wrong!!!!
