I hope it’s ok to post this here. I’m kind of driving myself crazy with worry. I’ve been having symptoms for quite a while. Started with a bleed after sex about 5 months ago.. then nothing for a few weeks, then some spotting between periods, then more frequent spotting. Now I seem to start spotting 10 days before each period  as well as random heavier bleeds after bowel movements and I also have left sided pelvic pain in one spot most days and central lower pelvic pain in a very particular spot, not generalised. My last smear about 18 months ago was borderline changes but negative HPV so they said no further testing or anything needed which is why at first I really wasn’t worried but now as more symptoms has developed and I’ve left it longer to go I suddenly feel frozen with fear and to scared to go! Do you think my GP would refer me to Colposcopy with these symptoms or with Negative HPV am I worrying about nothing?  

  • Hi starlight,

    The only way to know what's happening is to see your gp, it's always best getting these things checked out. Other non cancerous conditions could be causing your symptoms, lots of women pass through the group and get the all clear but you still need to find out what's happening and get any appropriate treatment if you need it. 

    Lots of love
