Posted: 02/17/07 - 12:57 Post subject: LEEP Procedure and Heavy Bleeding |
|
|
| I had a Leep Procedure done on Jan. 30th and 18 days later I began to have very heavy and uncontrollable bleeding. It actually started as I was having a conversation with another worker and I suddenly felt a gush of liquid in my female area almost like I went to the restroom on myself, but I knew I hadn't. I quickly went the the restroom discovered it was blood and called my gynecologist. I described what happened and her nurse said that if I was filling more than a pad an hour or have blood clots larger than a nickel to go to the ER ASAP. I was actually filling a pad about every 15 mins and had very large blood clots. I had a fellow worker take me to the emergency room where at examination it was discovered that I had an artery bleeding in my female area, which they think was linked to the Leep Procedure I had completed some 18 days earlier. I wanted to post this so that if something similar happened to someone else they would know to get to a doctor or hospital quickly. I lost a lot of blood and am very weak now. The doctors told me that if I began to bleed like this again than I would most likely have to have surgery to stop the bleeding. It was a very scary situation and it was also very serious. A nick on your finger is a little different from a bleeding artery since it is one of the main highways should I say for your blood. If this happens to anyone else, please stress to the workers at the ER check in how much you are bleeding because my doctors/nurses didn't understand until they examined me and even made several comments on the amount of blood. Hope no one else has any complications like I did. |

Posted: 04/09/07 - 14:30 Post subject: Leep and bleeding after sex |
|
|
I had a LEEP on 2 Feb and waiting 8 weeks before having sex - but will bleed for a few hours after sex now. Husband is endowed and where it didn't hurt before, I have minor discomfort as if my cervix is really sensitive now. I'm going in tomorrow for a check up - not sure what's going on but it's not normal.
This is my 2nd LEEP and the first one was fine. Waited 5 weeks post LEEP before having sex with no problems or issues at all.
This LEEP was more invasive as I had severe dysplasia this time...
BUT my DR said it was ok to have sex after 6 weeks too... so I did follow her instructions. ARGH! |

My doctor explained everything and it was very uncomfortable but no pain. After the procedure I felt like nothing was done to me, I had no symptoms and I felt fine. Of course the blownish, blackish discharge which is normal was my only side effect.
My point for writing this is that I thought I got too condifent and 4 days after my procedure I lifted 2 heavy detergents into and out of my car ... nothing right? WRONG, now I have slight bleeding and cramps. I should have remembered it was still surgery and listened to my doctor when he stressed, NO HEAVY LIFTING. I will heal but there was no reason to stress my body when I knew better.
This is just a note for all those others out there who want to be stubborn like me. Take a little advise and take it easy the first month after the procedure.
GOOD LUCK! |
hi it has being 3 weeks after my leep procedure a very superficial part of my cervix was removed i am 22 and my husband 24 we have a little baby and we want to have more, and today my husband came to me and he sayd he wanted to have sex that he coudnt hold it any longer.

Posted: 04/10/07 - 12:55 Post subject: Leep and bleeding after sex |
|
|
| I had the leep procedure done 2 months ago and have my follow up in about 3 weeks. I waited 6 weeks before having sex and since, every now and then, I have light bleeding after sex when that never happened before the LEEP. I just think the cervix is more sensitive now and if you have sex that is a little rough it causes a little bleeding. Its just like a sore that needs to heal. If you keep picking at it, its going to bleed. I think the longer you can wait in having sex the better it will be and less complications. I would recommend at least waiting 2 months, I think I would have completely healed by then if I did wait longer, but it also depends on how severe your LEEP procedure was. I am going to talk w/my doctor about it when I go back in 3 weeks but it sounds like a pretty common problem after the LEEP. |

Posted: 04/28/08 - 14:28 Post subject: sex after LEEP |
|
|
| I had a LEEP about 10 weeks ago. High Grade Dysplasia, CIN II.I waited 5 weeks after the doctor cleared me to have sex. At 3 weeks I had bacterial vaginosis and was treated with an antibiotic. Then I got a yeast infection from the antibiotic. So at five weeks I had sex, and bled afterwards. I continued for about a week or so, ( I thought it would stop after a while), then stopped having for two weeks to see if it would help heal. Then I had sex and I still had some bleeding afterward. It only lasts a few hours (spotting). Now i am at ten weeks and want to know if I should wait til my three month checkup, which is about two weeks away? My doc says they don't know and just set me up for a three month pap. Now, I feel fine, no pain, but could there be a problem with my cervix since I didnt wait? I have to wait 2 weeks for the pap, and 3-4 more for the results! |

|
|
| I have had two LEEP procedures done now and have never bled so much as a drop afterwards, including during/after sex. I pop a Vicodine about a half hour before the surgery and I'm good to go. I'm a little uncomfortable later, but I've had periods that have been worse than the LEEP. NO big deal! |

Posted: 06/29/08 - 21:24 Post subject: Bleeding 3 years after LEEP |
|
|
| I had a LEEP in 2004 and now in 2008 I all of the sudden have had bleeding after sex. Bleeding has lasted from 1-3 days after intercourse. I went to my doctor after the first incident and my doctor did a pap which was normal. She said bleeding after a LEEP is normal. My question is, why would I start bleeding more after 4 years of not bleeding with sex? Seems all of the sudden and weird. I'm a bit worried but my doctor seems unconcerned. |
