Trying to Get Pregnant

no sex for 2 weeks after colposcopy?!

You girls must be sick of hearing about my colposcopy, but I was googling and came upon an article that said you can't have sex for 2 weeks after a colposcopy?  I don't want to call my doc to ask this since I'm at work right now. My appt is tomorrow.  If this is true, I'm officially out this cycle Sad

Re: no sex for 2 weeks after colposcopy?!

  • I don't remember how long I had to wait after mine but two weeks seems long. I know you don't want to wait but I would talk to your doctor tomorrow and see what the official word is.
  • i would say talk to your dr. tomorrow... did you O yet?

  • I know after my LEEP there was a rather long wait (like 2 weeks at least), but that was several years ago.

  • Yep! I had my colp in April. Then a LEEP in May. Two weeks minimum. I can't remember if both had a time for avoidance or if it was just the LEEP. Sorry it falls at bad timing for you.

  • I don't remember being told there was any waiting period...  Maybe it varies from person to person?

    Same here and no tampons. I would ask your doctor.
  • Yep. I just had mine done a few months ago. I was told no sex/tampons for two weeks. I know that really sucks but since they do a biopsy with it usually, they want to prevent infection.  Im sorry. Maybe your doc will give you better news.

  • I have had 2 colonoscopys and was never told to wait to have sex.  I know that I did.  I don't know if them putting you under does anything to the TTC process? I don't understand why they would say that, but then again, I am not a doctor.

    I had one 3 weeks ago and it was just 1 week my OB said. I had my LEEP today, so now I have to go 6 more weeks :( Hope everything comes back positive for your results!
