Spotting and gyne visit....
| Sun, 11-09-2008 - 12:17am |
I have my annual coming up this week and for some unknown reason, I am spotting fairly heavy. I haven't done that for many years, not since I first went on the pill 21 years ago. Should I cancel my appt in case I am still spotting on appt day or should I go anyway, because this would be something they would be used to? I have never had my period or spotting during a gyne visit before, so I don't know what protocol would be.
Thanks for your help!



Hi there,
If you're having a pap test done at your annual visit, then you will need to reschedule the appointment until the spotting stops. Blood can cause abnormal test results, even if there isn't any problems.
