Hi Roro! I hope your procedure and recovery went well!

I just saw your post. I got diagnosed with cin3 two weeks ago. I'm waiting for the date for my Lletz procedure. I have been quite scared but slowly feeling better now about having it... But I really get your doubts, I have had plenty myself.

I would like to ask you a question about healing after the procedure, since I understand you have done it already. It says not to insert anything in the vagina for at least 4 weeks, and not having sex. Do you know if it's talking about sex in general (due to contractions during orgasm, etc.) or vaginal penetration exclusively?

I hope this is ok. Thanks very much. 

Hi

The first few days I felt just slightly cramps, with minor discharge. After about a week I felt like it was fine for anything non penetrative. But waited 4 weeks for anything penetrative. But I have to say my cycle was  bit off after for the first month. 

I the procedure wasn't much painful, but I found the staff while being caring, and knew I didn't want to talk through it even though thy thought it would be  distraction, pushed queries about other health concerns and rushed me out of there which just wasn't what I needed at the time. Ireland based health medical care if need to note location. 

Hope this is of help. 

Ask away for anything else

Thanks so much for your answer! It helps a lot! I will get in contact if I think of more questions.

Hi Roro

I was hoping you can help me since it’s been more than a year you had a the LLETZ treatment. I’m going through a lot emotionally from my experience yesterday. 

I started getting CNI1 in my smear 5 years ago. Doctors generally say its a virus and clears up on it own but it didn’t in 3 years in fact went from CNI1 to CNI2. I was very sacred so opted for LOOP l/LLETZ surgery last year in May 2022. I recovered really well and was no bleeding after surgery. No change in vaginal discharge and periods or period pain. I forgot about it until now.
Had sex for the first time after 1.5 years after the surgery yesterday. I was screaming in pain as soon as he penetrated, I was literally digging my nails in his arms. He stopped in a couple of minutes as soon as he saw a lot of fresh blood. I had no pleasure no orgasm nor him. Lets just say I was devastated and traumatised from the pain and realising that I will never have pleasure from sex. Never felt this kind of pain before during sex. Post-sex it’s not painful but I feel bruised inside and very light bleeding after 10 hours of sex and mild pink discharge now after a day. 
since you had concerns about sex and orgasm what has been your experience, has it all been as usual?
