Hey I have a couple of questions following my LLETZ treatment.
I had LLETZ treatment for CIN3 a little over 3 weeks ago.
1st question: when will I be able to start having baths again?
2nd question: how soon will I be able to go for an STI screening?

Hello and thank you for your post,
Another charity called Jo's Trust has information about having a LLETZ procedure and what to do afterwards. This includes when it is ok to have a bath. In their advice (written by a colposcopist) You will see that it is OK to do to have a bath 24 hrs after having the procedure done. You can read about what they say here
I'm afraid that I cannot see any guidance about how long you should wait before getting your STI screening done. The best thing to do is to contact the clinic or your GP practise where you would have it done and ask them.
You might also find it helpful to read our information about having treatment for CIN, you can see it here
I hope you will be okay.
Please get back to us if you need any more information or support. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
Take care,
Caroline
