How it started was with routine pap smears that kept coming back abnormal. Being young and not sexually active, the doctor and I kept ignoring them after all there was no family history; I was STD free and negative for HPV. By the time, I went to see the gynecologist I had advanced cancerous cells.
My first LEEP (loop electrical excision) they took 1cm by 2cm. The second was 1cm by 1cm. With multiple cone biopsies through out. Finally we were successful and I was declaired cancer free.
Then the problems started. I would have a build up pelvic pressure and then WOOSH gushes of blood overflowing pads and so on. I saw my gynocoligist and he kept telling me that it was just a period and that I would have pain and no matter how I exsplained it he did not believe me. During one of theses, episodes I had ultrasounds done at the hospital still the doctor did not believe me.
Therefore, I went to the fertility clinic and low and behold, I had no cervics due to a build up of scar tissue. I had to have surgery and one was created. After a few weeks that too closed and back to the OR. This time I had to go for by weekly stretching for 4 months, then every three months, then every 6 months.
I now have a somewhat functioning cervics and have the worries that if I get pregnant can I carry it?
