I'm sorry but, this did not help me. It is common sense to change a blood filled pad. And, more common sense to keep proper hygiene. I understand that at this moment in my health, with the surgery and my abnormal cell growth on my cervix that this is an infection. But, with me bleeding, I normally bleed heavily. (Which I know you dont know this). But, its very bright red and light. I dont know if there is any mention of if I should or should not, seemings that I am bleeding during this when I just had a period last week as well. I am on progesterone as well... which scares me more with now I am bleeding every week?
