Morning all,
First time posting on here. I'm after a bit of advice. I had Lletz treatment 3 weeks ago for CIN 3 cells.
I had cramps for a few days after, no bleeding, a watery discharge started around 5 days after treatment, followed by the odd bit of blood, but no pain.
I was told no exercise for 1 week and nothing too strenuous for 4 weeks. I've been walking the dogs each day without any problems. I went for a short, steady bike ride on Wednesday morning and went into work for the first time since treatment on Thursday, I was on my feet for two hours max, when I got home I had a big bleed, lasted around an hour and then stopped. I called my GP as I was very concerned with the amount of blood, and was told to go to A&E, but the bleeding stopped so I didn't (wish I had now). I've been taking it easy since, I've had a small amount of bleeding.
Last night I was woken with really painful cramping and some blood. I took some painkillers, which took the edge off. Still getting painful cramps today. Is all this normal? Could I be having my period early? I've read that a lot of people have a heavier, more painful first period post Lletz.
I came off the pill around 6 months ago (to try for a baby) it took a while for my periods to return, after 2 months I had two periods two weeks apart, then another 5 weeks later. Today is 24 days since the start of my last period.
Ive read a lot of posts on here and everyone seems to experience different things.
Any advice greatly appreciated!
