Still confused about this infection/lochia issue.
Doctor put me onto antibiotics for 7 days and a cream and sent off some tests which came back negative. When doing the swab
he commented that it did look like an infection and said that he wouldn't want to be the one doing my pap smear because my uterus was tilted? I wasn't sure what he meant by that, but when I asked him to explain he described the condition and not why he wouldn't want to do the smear test...I thought a smear test needed samples from the cervix. I'd never been told about the tilted uterus - never mentioned during my pregnancy/birth or previous tests. Anyone got any ideas?
Anyway, finished the antibiotics last week and the only change was that I passed a small amount of blood on the second to last day, this also coincides with when I usually ovulate though. I'm still getting exactly the same discharge though. Great - 15 weeks and counting.
I think I will try and find another doctor as I explained to him that I find smear tests really uncomfortable and that having a baby hadn't really changed that - as I was finding it really hard to relax and getting a bit uptight, he said 'What are you afraid of?". I felt like kicking him in between the legs and saying "What are you afraid of?" right back at him.
