Hello,
I think it is possible that LEEP procedure cause false blood in urine because after the procedure, for more than a week, you have bloody secretions from wound created by the procedure also may give bad smell if you have Urinary tract infection (UTI) bacteria are present in urine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
