would love to hear from anyone who has had a cervical eroption

It was a while ago (8 years or so) and am not totally sure that it was the same thing as I don't really remember, but I kept suffering from post coital bleeding and then went and had a day procedure cauterizing. After that I never had any trouble. I never did anything to find out what caused it initially (I was on the pill at the time - in the UK one called Mercilon) - I had, had some abnormal PAP smears but nothing indicating anything sinister and so from what I recall the doc said that the cauterization might help there too, so I kept having more regular PAP smears (once a year) for a while after and they were all clear so then back on the 3 yearly cycle. I remember the bleeding being quite scary the first time it happened, but it wasn't happening for long as they booked me in for the cauterizing pretty much as soon as I saw the specialist (it was all pre-children and I had no midcycle bleeding so maybe easier to diagnose?)

Thanks for the reply Wsiwyg. Did you find the procedure painful and what type of anathestic do they use?

[wysiwyg]

It was under a general anesthetic (was in the UK) and I didn't find it painful at all - worst bit was the fasting required for the general anesthetic.

Just back from an appointment with my ob and I am going to have the operation in July.

How many days were you off your feet for?

Thanks for answering my questions

I would think just the one day off the feet, and prob gave it a week before DTD , but I can't really remember. Is funny am not sure if is because now live other side of the world but there seems to be alot of this type of thing I have difficulty remembering (e.g. at dentist today asking about previous dental work which would have been done around the same time).
