Lletz - bleeding after sex 4 weeks later

I am wondering if anyone has experienced bleeding after sex 4 weeks after lletz procedure. I have had 2 biopsy’s in the last 2/3 months and everything seemed fine and back to normal I thought it had been over 6 weeks! I am bleeding now and worried my cervix hasn’t healed? 

  • Hello Doras

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been experiencing some bleeding after sex since having a Lletz procedure 4 weeks ago. it's understandable that you're feeling concerned. 

    The NHS website does advise that people may experience some bleeding for up to 4 weeks after a Lletz procedure but do give your GP surgery a call to talk through your concerns with one of the clinicians there. I'm sure that an appointment can be made if they feel further investigation is needed. 

    I hope things settle for you soon and that the biopsy results bring some reassurance. 

    Best wishes,
