Hi,
Basically I'm looking for reassurance/to see if there are any people with a similar problem to me.
At the end of November I had stomach cramps and spotting. I went to a doctor (a private clinic, as I was abroad at the time), and they gave me two ultrasound scans and took some blood. They said the scans and the blood test didn't show anything strange and that my pill (Microgynon 30) was probably the cause of the problems. After a few days the pain and spotting stopped.
But a month later the cramps and spotting came back, worse than before. My mum thought it was the pill too, so I panicked and stopped taking it. But it seems that the pill wasn't to blame - the bleeding has stopped now but the cramps haven't, almost a month later. They're a bit like period pains, including back pains. I went to the doctor today, who took a smear test.
I know that no one on here can diagnose me, but I'm really worried about the possibility of having cervical cancer, especially as I've been in pain all this time. Has anyone else experienced anything similar/know if cancer is likely? I'm only 21 but I know it's still possible. Sometimes I get urinary tract infections but that doesn't seem likely this time:( Please help!
