Ring your GP on Tuesday but don’t be worried as could be a lot of things, the vast majority of which…. Not concerning

Whataninsight · 07/05/2023 08:54

Do you have health anxiety op?

you have posted multiple times about health concerns in the past

helpftm · 07/05/2023 08:57

Any chance you could be pregnant? This always used to happen to me in pregnancy as your cervix is sensitive. It's probably nothing to worry about but ring GP just to double check. Rough s** can also cause it, hope everything is ok OP

Just because I have health anxiety dosnt mean my symptoms aren't real..im looking for people who have been through it and had a simular experience

Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 09:16

I mean there's a change but if I was I shouldn't ge bleeding that bad..I was due on my period and it has come to an end or so I thought so maybe its the tail end of that I don't no...

You have posted over 130 times in health or women’s health op

It is relevant because it is important information for anyone about to post on your thread ie be careful what you say

It might be a cervical erosion.
If you’ve had Lletz recently it might also be abnormal cells.
It’s highly unlikely to have developed into cancer. Did they get clear borders last time?

Tuesday morning ring your GP.
Try and relax till then, you’ve been in the system before so am sure will be seen and treated quickly.

Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 13:59

Apparently so yes...they Saif they did it was cin 1 and 2 it was only in January.im hoping its my period but so worried

I came off the pill 3 months ago I think u only get that from the pill

DachshundsAreLoud · 07/05/2023 14:28

I’ve had exactly this! It is a sign of cervical cancer so please do ofcourse check it out, but mine came back as an ectropion, which is totally harmless - which I think is exactly what you mention in your op too

Not just the pill. My further scans showed eventually i had endometriosis too following that. Just get a smear test done for peace of mind.

Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 15:48

My last smear was in Dec which came back abnormal I had a letz done in Jan which removed all the abnormal cells and I go back in July for a test of cure again.im wandering if anyone has had this after they have sposed to have finished there period

OP posts:
Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 15:49

I go back in July now for my test of cure after my letz petrified

OP posts:
Wishona · 07/05/2023 15:53

It’s highly likely to be fine.
I had CIN3 and unclear borders on the bit removed and 14 years later I’ve been fine.

Do ring your GP, they might bring your smear forward for peace of mind x

Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 16:10

Did you go back for further treatment on the cin3 that was missed .

OP posts:
Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 16:20

Yes but if it is abnormal cells this will be the third time its come back abnormal

Had two rounds of abnormal cells just after I stopped the pill. It calmed down eventually. Don’t go on the pill again, i wish i never did anyway.

Wishona · 07/05/2023 16:35

No no more treatment. 6 monthly smears for years and every single one was fine.

Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 16:35

I'm not planning too

..I came off it due to the abnorm cells its the bleeding im worried about

Deep breath. I used to bleed after sex for a long time too, but i was doing regular smear test for precaution and it was all fine afterwards. I think you are going through that stage.
all will be fine i am sure

Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 16:57

If you had unclear Borders surely it wpuld of shown up on the next smear or did u have treatment again

Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 16:58

They ideally like a clear edge so they’re sure they’ve got it all. Lack of a clear edge doesn’t mean they haven’t got it all, just they might not have. All been absolutely fine since.

Had mine last month actually and the nurse took an extra good sample for me, they just test for HPV now, but she said they’ll still see if anything looks dodgy and even spot things like thrush. They put all your history with your sample.

Anyway, my point being, mine was as bad as it can get before cancer and the Lletz worked. So try not to worry.

Bex4567 · 07/05/2023 19:16

Well my last smear was high grade servere and my leetz ,biopsy was cin 1 and 2 so that worry me abit too...have they missed anything.they said they got it all just this bleeding is worrying me but hoping it's just the end of my period 😭.
This is my second leetz in a year due to the cells returning after 6 months sk I can only fear the worst
