To scared to go..

I've been on the contraceptive pill since 2009 due to heavy periods never had a break. Then last year I came off the pill for a month to be tested for the menopause I had a period and the pain was very bad layed up for 3 days period lasted 5 days. But not going through menopause but I ran out of my pills and due to Christmas couldn't get appointment (long story). My last period was before Christmas no period since then apart from a very small bit of pink bleeding week ago, bleeding didn't countinue. Having slight cramping now and then not painful. My last smear was 2019 soo scared to go, I know I have too..x

  • Hey, 

    I dont have any words of wisdom here but my advice would honestly be to follow your gut and get checked over - it feels like medical professionals are there to offer nothing but bad news during these times but they are also there with positives, reassurance and ultimately the care you might need. As someone who is currently on a cancer journey and was terrified to speak to anyone I am so glad I did, I've been reassured, my surgery is booked and my prognosis is looking positive which could have been a different story if I decided not to get checked! Be brave and stay positive, whatever is going on you need answers and you never know, your mind might end up being put at ease :happy: xx

  • My last one was 6 years ago! That's all I've been offered so there's been 6 years for the mass I now have to grow.., if I was you I would be on that table with my knees up as fast as possible!!! 
    good luck
