Hi,

A bit of background really, last year at my first smear at 25 my results were HPV and CIN1. I went for the colposcopy which confirmed my smear results and to come back in a year. My anxiety during this time was through the roof!

Before lockdown, I luckily got in for my follow up smear. The results came back negative for HPV so now they will see me every 3 years, obviously I felt like I had a tonne weight lifted off my shoulders. 

Now strangely, since the smear, I've had a very small amount of bleeding or brown discharge after sex. The first couple of times I put this down the post period or ovulating time etc but eventually after a few times these reasons didn't justify it anymore.

I went to my GP who gave me a general pelvic exam with the speculum, completed the norm swabs for STDs etc. She did say my cervix looked normal but mentioned a tiny polyp or ectropian and white discharge (TMI, sorry) but nothing to worry about I kind of zoned out I think. A week later, my results said thrush (lovely) so my partner and I took the meds and cream etc and thought we'd hold off on sex whilst we fixed ourselves as such. 

And then, as expected, for the first time after I bled after sex. It's now the weekend so my GP isn't open. I plan on phoning on monday straight away but I'm obviously sick with worry and very unsettled. I know noone can diagnose me on here but would be interested to hear if anyone has experienced anything similar. My partner obviously just keeps going back to the fact I had a clear smear 2 months ago and the GP said my cervix looked healthy, but my mind is just everywhere. Google is not my friend either. Some say it may be my contraceptive pill but I've been on that for 10 years with no issues.
