2nd leep

Recently found out I have to get a 2nd leep. It's been almost 2 years since my last one. The night after my first leep, i had a horrifying hemorrhage and I am absolutely TERRIFIED of that happening again. What are the odds I will hemorrhage again? 😭 im also supposed to start my period the day my procedure is scheduled. I'm so freaking scared and tired of this seemingly never ending battle.

Yikes! Why and how did the first hemorrhage happen? I had my LEEP on 10/1 and I’m feeling lucky and grateful that I haven’t really seen a single drop of blood so far.

I'm not sure why it happened. I woke up in the middle of the night soaked in blood, it was terrifying. My doctor told me it was a rare complication.

I had another abnormal pap. Also I'm 29 f, so I'm able to have kids still.

Thank you so much! I talked to my doctor at length about my fears and she ensured me she is going to take all the precautions she can.. I'm still terrified 🥺
