sorry TMI..
i had LLETZ 8 days ago and I've been having very very
watery light brown tinged discharge..
if I can even call it discharge, it's literally like water it seems.
And it has a very odd smell..like abit 'off'. It's not really foul but
its certainly not a pleasant smell!
I've read mixed things, not sure whether this is normal or not??
thanks!
Hi Anna,
It sounds like you could have an infection, give either the hospital a call or your GP and they will advise, and maybe prescibe you some antibiotics.
Hi Anna,
I have been having exactly the same, its so horrible! I phoned the hospital yesterday about it as I was concerned about the smell!
The hospital advised me that it is normal and said - imagine you have scraped your knee, it becomes a bit watery before it is trying to scab, this is what your cervix is doing and what you can see.
She advised me to hang on a bit (I had LLETZ 8 days ago) and give it another week or 2 to see if it stops. She did say that if the smell does become unbearable and the watery discharge turns a greeny colour I need to go see my GP.
Also, if the smell and discharge doesnt calm down in 1, 2, or even 3 weeks then go to the doctor as it may be B.V due to the dyes they use when completing LLETZ.
I wish the hospital told me all this whilst I was having it done! I might have felt more normal then!
Hope that helps!
Louise
Hi Anna
I have been experiencing the same thing and it's been horrible. Such a disgusting smell and I started to get paranoid about it
Mine started about 8 days after LLETZ and I started to wonder if I had some sort of infection starting although I felt fine. I called the hospital for advice as I'd read mixed things, and was told to contact my GP which wasn't possible to get an appointment !
Waited a few days and it's now not as bad - also thanks to Louise for her advice on here it's helped to reassure me a bit too .- its nice to know I'm not alone in all this as that's how it feels sometimes .
Take care girls x
