Cervical cancer

Hello I'm 19 and have a child I've had symptoms for a few months now I always bleed after sex and my periods are all over the place I'll be on for 2 days then off for a few days then on again for a few days and it goes on for a good 2 weeks until I come off again completely I always have white thick discharge I had a smear test which I bled a lot while having it but I just got a letter saying they put it in the wrong container so another delay I'm on the urgent waiting list for a closer look at my cervix and my bladder i always feel like I need a wee I had blood in my urine test as my symptoms are aswell like a UTI. I also have pain during sex and on my last period I had large clots in bottom of my bath I get a dragging pain down my legs like labour pains quite often , my mum died of cervical cancer at 33 I know I'm young and people say it's less likely to be cancer but I've been waiting for months for a answer to this and I would like a honest opinion from others who have had it or are clued up on the subject and just say if they have had the same symptoms and had a positive cancer test or just general honest opinion please 

  • Hello Sophmariex

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been dealing with some health problems over the past few months. It's understandable that you're feeling worried particularly as you've sadly lost your Mum at a young age to cancer. 

    It's good to hear that you've been referred for some further investigations but I wonder if you'd like to talk things through with one of our team of nurses. I'm sure they would be able to give you some information and support whilst you're waiting for your appointment. If you'd like to talk to them they're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I do hope you have some answers soon. 

    Best wishes,
