Colposcopy advice

Hi,

I went for a colposcopy two days ago and had a cervical biopsy taken. This wasn't my first time as I have CIN2 and it's being watched, I knew to expect some discharge as usual however I've been bleeding since. I've passed some 5p sized clots with bright red blood whenever I wipe or left on a sanitary pad. Is this usual? I'm not on my period either ️

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat, amjh1312.

    I'm sorry to hear about your situation.

    Unfortunately I can't say whether having passed these blood clots is normal but we do have some information about this procedure on our website which might be helpful to read if you find a moment. Alternatively, if you feel like asking some questions to our team of nurses, they'd be happy to chat with Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m on this freephone 0808 800 4040.

    I hope this helps.

    Best wishes,

    Renata, Cancer Chat Moderator
