Hello. I had a leep procedure done without my doctor doing a colpo. She mentioned that she will do the colpo during the leep procedure and that I need to have it done anyway because I came back at high grade HPV. She cut off a huge chunk of my cervix in which all of it was normal tissue. Now I m having all kinds of sharp pains in my pelvix, pain during intercourse and weird periods that stay on for about two weeks. I went to another obgyn who stated that this doctor should not have done the leep without doing the colpo first to see if it was even necessary. Do I have a lawsuit and what can I do about this?

Should Colpo Be Done Before The Leep Procedure?
Hi, Please do not panic. LEEP procedure has already given normal reports, so no point in doing colposcopy now. Heavy menstrual bleeding needs to be investigated. Please get diagnostic hysteroscopy with endometrial biopsy reports. If it s negative for malignancy then you can consider options for Levonorgestrel containing intrauterine device insertion. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Purushottam Neurgaonkar, OBGYN
