Hi.
I am fully recovered now and ttc again
I had my colposcopy and lletz treatment back in Feb early March and they managed to remove all the bad cells during the procedure.
It's important to remember that it is very very rarely cancer that is picked up from a smear, however I'm sure like me you're thinking the worst right now!!
The procedure itself was painless for me, just a weird sensation - not dissimilar to a simple smear just a little longer.
The recovery was fine too, discharge for around three weeks which needed a pad or panty liner. No sex for four weeks while recovering and then told that it's safe to continue ttc after the four weeks was up
I have to go back for a repeat check up smear every six months for the next couple years I believe, but I think that's good that they are keeping a close eye on me now!
The lletz procedure which I had ( think it's called leep outside uk) does not affect fertility and there is just a very tiny increase of giving birth to a premature baby due to weakening of the cervix.
Please try not to make yourself ill with worry like I did, as the chances are everything is going to be just fine.
Don't hesitate to ask any more questions, I know how scary this can be when you don't know what's going to happen etc.
