So, I've posted that I've been having some problems with bleeding and occasional cramping after intercourse. I'm getting a second opinion because my doctor does not want to do any further investigating. Which I think this deserves. With my history of abnormal paps and ECC's, I'd rather have 2 or even 3 Dr's tell me nothing's wrong. Anyway, here's what they say:

Diagnosis

Benign endocervical epithelium present
No Ectocervical squamous epithelium present for evaluation

Hi,

I don't think you have anything to worry about. Your biopsy is totally normal, and even your previous ASC-US Pap and LEEP were unremarkable, except for the squamous atypia, which could be the result of irritation, particularly since everything was normal with this report.

If a second opinion will help set your mind at ease, then go for it, but it doesn't seem to be needed.

Hugs,

Lisa

Thanks!

The reason I'm actually going to go to another Dr. is because of the bleeding and occasional cramping after intercourse, which my Dr. doesn't seem to want to investigate.
