 Posted: 08/09/06 - 10:18 Post subject: Could i have cervical cancer |
  |
|
| I heard that if you have bleeding between periods that it could be cancer, i just had a swab for STIs done and the results came back clear however im concerned that something is wrong. My period in the past has always been regular however 2 months ago i got put on antibiotics for strep throat and got my period only 2 weeks after tha last, the next month was regular and now i have once again been put on antibiotics for a bladder infection and now have my period (only 2 weeks after) could this be cancer or more likey to be related to the antibiotics?? i am unable to visit a doctor as i am due to travel in a week to asia (for 3 months) and dont think il be comfortable visiting a doctor there. Any comments would be great |

Spotting between periods is normal, and can be a sign of ovulation, or just hormonal changes during your cycle.
A PAP test would test for cervical cancer, and hopefully you have had one every year =) |

thanks for that, ive read about how spotting is normal. I had a pap smear about 1 1/2 years ago, and it came back clear and am planning on getting on as soon as i get home. Im not too stressed about it as i dont have cramping or anything to go with it, i guess il wait and see what happens in the next few months and keep track for my gyno,
thanks heaps |
