Hello Everyone,
I am new at this so bare with me. I had the LEEP procedure done at the end of March. My doctor told me not to insert anything into the vagina for 90 days. I had sex on Monday the 14th and my period was suppose to come Thurs 17 and it isn't here. What are the consequences to having sex before the time limit is up? Did anyone else have a late period after the LEEP procedure? I couldn't be pregnant...could I?
Thanks any input would be great!!!

dear confused-- In all of my research on leep I only heard to abstain from sex for 4-6 weeks, which is much less than 90 days!! The reason for the wait is because your cervix was cut, so think of it as an open wound. you don't want anything to touch it because it can get infected. I'm assuming it takes at least 4 weeks to heal. I have heard other women say their periods were different after the leep, I don't know becuase I just had my leep last week. But please! don't let anything come in contact with your cervix for at least another 2 weeks!

To tsks,
I regret that I had sex because it hurt sooo bad, I won't do that again!!! The only reason that my doctor told me 90 days is because my PAP went from normal in 2002 to abnormal in 2003. I had the colposcopy and after everything was said and done I had CIN III, then I had an emergency LEEP. So you say that my period being late could be normal?
Thanks a bunch
