Hello, i am interested in peoples experiences post treatment.
I finished 7 weeks of radiotherapy in May 2025 (stage 1B). I did start using vaginal estrogen cream and a dilator post traetment and that has helped immensely. I do not use it as regularly as I should.
I still see tiny amount of blood on the top of the dilator so i feel like it is taking a long time to heal. Outside of this i have no spotting but just recently I have seen pink on my tissue after going to the toilet. This has only happened twice and within the last 3 weeks.
I have recently taken up going to the gym (4 weeks ago) and I wondered it that could be part of the reason.
I have another check up at the end of the month including a CT scan so feel nervous about recurrence.
I am interested in other people's stories and whether they have experienced the same thing.
I am not experiencing any pain or discomfort.
Thanks so much
