I am currently waiting for my first smear, it's booked in for 10th March. It's a year late as I'm 27 this year, mainly my own fault but I also struggled to get an appointment due to Covid. When I explained my symptoms to the doctor, she didn't seem all too worried. She booked my smear and swabs to be on the safe side. She said we'd see what results they bought back and then move forward from there. 

My periods have always been a bit irregular due to being on the implant. I think a noticed a month or two ago, my periods seemed to be a little heavier and we're lasting a few days longer. I had my period as normal at the start of this month, it ended and then I started bleeding again 4 days later which lasted a week. I've stopped bleeding now. I'd class it as spotting as it was never enough to wear a pad or anything. I've also noticed I have awful belly ache the day after having sex. It lasts most of the day and fades off in the evening. Sometimes a faint dull ache in my groin. I also have a dull ache in my lower back most mornings when I wake up but that fades after an hour or so too.

I don't have any unusual discharge, no pain during sex and no bleeding during or after sex. I've only had this irregular bleeding once. I'm also on a waiting list to have my implant taken out. 

I don't really know what the point of this post is. Maybe someone's had the same and hasn't been diagnosed with cancer? I had the HPV vaccine when I was at secondary school so I'm hoping this goes in my favour too

I'm not too worried, but then I am at the same time. It comes on in waves. I have days where I am not worried at all and days where I cry because I'm so scared. 

I have two beautiful girls 5&9 and I'm just worried about our future
