Colposcopy Question

by rubyolivia, May 22, 2008 01:50PM
I had my colpo done on Tuesday and am just curious how long the bleeding typically lasts afterwards. I'm still bleeding quite a bit (not gushing, but not exactly spotting either). Just wondered if this was normal!

OK, thank you! I assumed it was normal. I was only told that there would be "spotting" though and this isn't exactly spotting!

I found it was a tad heavier than spotting...then became spotting in a few days....we are all different with our bodies but if it became heavier and u noticed a foul odor than time 2 call doctor!
