Recovery from LLETZ

My last smear revealed abnormal cells (HPV & moderate dyskaryosis) and I had a colposcopy 11 days ago. All was going well until I has very heavy bleeding on Saturday. Its eased off now to a light flow thankfully but what I can't find it whether it's likely to get heavy again or whether I can consider myself as recovering well and get back to my exercise classes again.
I know I can't have sex or go swimming for 4 weeks after the procedure coz of infection but not sure how long I should take things easy for to prevent further heavy bleeding?
Does anyone have experience of this? I've tried phoning the clinic but not heard back from them.

Update, got rushed into hospital for emergency surgery to stop the hemorrhaging. Lost over 2 litres of blood! Hoping to go home tomorrow but this has put my recovery back a bit…

Omg. This sounds horrible. Really hope you're OK. I guess the take it easy route is definitely the one to take.

Hope you recover quickly x
