Can I request a smear ?!

Hi I’m back again this is draining my life ! I’ve had a few problems down below for a good few months now none which have been resolved and I was hoping the issue would resolve itself to be honest as the doctors can’t find anything. I had blood in my urine which led to an ultrasound. Nothing came of the ultrasound so that’s it finished now. But now I haven’t finished my period in two weeks (sorry for Tmi on next bit) I have very watery and ALOT of light brown/red foul smelling discharge which isn’t a fishy smell. After sex I am bleeding a lot too. I have had numerous urine tests which have all come up with no infection. After reading online I was panicking this could indeed be an STI that I’ve had for years and been untreated but I’m sure they would have came back in my urine sample? Anyways my last resort it to ring the surgery today and hopefully request a smear as this is a test I haven’t had done for 3 or 4 years. Somethings not right down there but I don’t know what. Sorry for the rant I just felt I needed to speak to someone. 

  • Hi Spark,

    As you have not had a smear for 3 to 4 years, I would request one.  I am sure that if you mention your symptoms the doctors would agree to it.  It is also worth asking about an STI test whilst you are there, I had one many years ago, that was a swab test not urine, so the doctor or nurse could do that at the same time.

    I hope that you get some answers soon about what the problem is.

    Regards
