Hello everyone, thanks for reaidng my message. I'm 30 and have had yearly smears due to high risk HPV positive result for the last two years, thankfully no cell changes at either smear. I went for my annual smear today  thinking nothign of it but it was really quite traumatic, I bled a lot and the nurse suggested that by looking at my cervix I will be referred for colposcopy but that it will be a month wait on results in any case, the said he was surpised that my previous results had only said HPV.  I have an ectropian - probably due to being on the combined pill so I thought that some light bleeding might happen - it has before, but this was a lot and the nurse seemed concerned. I feel really wobbly. I have been having pelvic pain for about a month now, but i get pelvic pain somtimes and I knew I had my smear coming up so was trying not to worry about it. I don't really know what I'm looking for but was wondering if others had had similar experiences and that if colposcopy is next what to expect from it?

Thank you El x
