Painful hysteroscopy

Sorry to hear you have been in constant pain. It maybe caused by the coil? Has it been checked since insertion? Usually it would be checked after 6 weeks.  I understand if they are not sitting correctly within the womb or have migrated they can cause pain and bleeding. Worth having this checked. Hope things are sorted for you soon. 

To be honest I have had no contact with either my gp or consultant that did my procedure. I have an appointment that I made to see my gp on the 15th which is exactly 3 months since it was done. I can't get it through my head that I have just been left to feel this way after having such a minor procedure done, if it wast for myself contacting my gp I really thing I would have been left to suffer. Its truly awful how I have been left 

After 6 weeks it is recommended that the threads are checked and still in place. Ask GP or nurse practise to examine you. Ultimately if you are unhappy and feel the coil is the problem you can ask for it to be removed. No one deserves to suffer due to treatment offered. Normally bleeding pain settles 3-6 months according to the manufacturer leaflet. Hope it goes well on 15th. 

A blog has been published today on the hub, about the launch of a new network for patients and clinicians to come together to improve gynaecology experiences:
