Hi I had a biopsy on my groin done on Friday, they took 3 samples, just wondering do you know if this would cause me to bleed the next day, like having a period ?
Unfortunately the nurses won't be here to answer your question until Thursday. I'm not a nurse but I've been a cancer patient for many years & I've had biopsies before, including in my groin and I've never had this problem. Were you given a contact number at the hospital that you can ring if you have any problems post surgery? If so, I suggest you ring them & they can advise you better than anyone here. If you haven't got a number and it being a Bank Holiday weekend, I suggest you ring 111 and they may be able to get a GP to ring you back with advice. Of course, if the bleeding gets worse or doesn't stop, you may want to go to A&E but only you can decide if you think it's appropriate.
I hope it settles down and everything goes well for you,

hi, they did not give me any contact number, but I'm hoping it is my period I'm trying to work it out, as I forgot the date of my last period, thanks for your help xx
