Hi I can full understand how you feel.Could you be pregnant?

As you are booked in for a smear have a word with the nurse/gp while you are there about your concern's and what has been happening.Sometimes when you come off the pill it can take the body along time to get back to normal.:hugs:

i have done a few pregnnantcy tests but they were all negative.

thanks for your reply. xx

hi amanda

I too have had the simular problems with my periods, ive not been on the pill and have had regualr smear tests.

My doctor as said it is due to stress and until i can cut down on the stress and anixety i may continue to have simular problems.

The last smear test results took 10 days to come back and i was told they would ring me if they had to redo the test for any reason; or if not i would just get a letter in the post saying everything is ok.

One reason the test may have to be redone is there may be a false reading, due to change in the secretions because of the monthly cycle.

If you want to PM me and we can talk privately you can do so.

Well done for arranging to have a smear test, because although you will worry until the results come through, your doctor will be able to give you some reassurance, and I am sure you will get some sense of relief knowing you have done the right thing - otherwise your worry is going to go on for far too long.

All sorts of hormonal inbalances, often related to anxiety, can cause periods to be missed, and for irregular bleeding to occur. it is a bit worrying at the time, but quite usual, so please don't think it has to be something awful. If you let your doctor know you are really concerned he may be able to fast track the results for you. I think the results usually go to the doctor first, and they then inform you. I know it is a difficult time waiting for results, I am always on edge, but you have done the right thing, soon you will be able to relax. http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/images/icons/icon7.gif

Yeah, booking a smear is very brave and also very sensible.
This brown discharge that you mention could actually be your period (as they can change as you get older)
I don't think you have anything to worry about to be honest. When i talk to my friends they all mention different kinds of strange changes in their nether regions. As for your results! your swab will go straight to the lab for testing and then the results will be sent back to you and your doctor. If there are any concerns over irregular cells then they will contact you immediately. (although this does'nt necessarily mean cervical cancer).

I think you should stop worrying and remember you will soon have one less thing to worry about. :yesyes:

Hunny,
Try not to worry yourself and think the worst. The stress and anxiety can be causing your symptoms.
I hope you are feeling a bit better now and take care xxx:hugs:

Hi Hunny,

I know the next few weeks are going to be difficult, but you have done the right thing having your smear, and just remember hormonal inbalances are not unusual and do cause all sorts of symptoms, including the ones you have described. I know you will be worrying until you get the results, it is the worst part I think, but just try to hang on to the thought that it is more than likely just one of those annoying problems that most women get at one time or another. Try to keep yourself occupied and busy with other people as much as possible.

When i came off my pill one time it took me nearly two months to get my period, i just had a smear done and the results took 6 weeks i think that is terrible.
