so ive always had somewhat painful sex, recently its been with some spotting. and very painful cramps all month long
always had painful periods always thought i had endo
my first pap smear came back abnormal.... im going for a colposcopy on thursday.
has anyone had symptoms of what could be cervical cancer but your colposcopy went well ?
Hi,
On my first ever smear last year I got abnormal results, it said low grade so had to wait 2/3 weeks for colposcopy also painful sex, bleeding after sex, spotting during periods etc, when I had my first colposcopy they actually said it was high grade & in fact the doctor that done mine said it looked like very very early cervical cancer, thank god my biopsy came back as moderate changes, so had a repeat in 6 months & it came back better at mild changes, I am having another colposcopy in November so hopefully it’s resolved itself, I thought the worst too. Hope things go well for you x
was the painful sex and stuff related to the hpv and the abnormal cells? i have those exact same symptoms thinking i hace cancer 
ive always had some pain with sex which i related to my tilted uterus and possibly having endo, ive dealt with a lot of endo symptoms since i was younger. pretty much all of them. now im having an anxiety attack about this pap. i have to go on thursday for the colposcopy
When I had the colposcopy I told her I was bleeding after sex and spotting etc & she showed me a little lump on my cervix & said that was the reason for the bleeding. But since I’ve been fine no spotting or bleeding after sex I was told to eat blueberries, strawberries & raspberries daily by the nurse, not sure why but apparently they are very good for cervical abnormalities & the only thing I changed was eating blueberries daily & my results were better this time than last, I thought exactly the same thing and drove myself crazy for weeks ringing for the results nearly everyday. I’m sure you will be fine xx
I had similar symptoms and high grade cell changes at my smear test. But I contacted Jos trust cervical cancer expert team (you can find it on their website) and they said that the smear results and my endo pain were likely separate.
I had a Lletz procedure and now I’m all clear! I still have the endo pain though.
Sending you a big hug, hope it goes well xx
What about PID? It can cause all the above symptoms.
my doctor never mentioend PID, ive never had any STD like chlamydia or anything like that
Only around 30 percent in the cases caused by STD. It is a really big misbelief to think only STD can cause PID. You can have pid without any stds. I read a lot about it. I can only find womens with pid without std on the internet.
wow so how would i get a diagnosis? wouldnt my doctor see it on scans or on any test?
It is quite difficult to get diagnosis sometimes becasue there is not a specific test for it. Obviously they test you for std, can do ultrasound (but ultrasound usually shows if you have TOA a compliaction of pid) and blood test with the inflamatory markers. But maybe the most "specific" test for it if the doctor do a bimanual examination and directly want to find if you have pid symtoms like pain if they press around uterus, ovaries.
positive HPV smear test
