Can a colposcopy delay your period?

caroline2806 · Sep 8th, 2009, 14:11 PM

I had one done yesterday and was due my period yesterday/today but still no sign.

They performed a preg test but i'd only been to the toilet 20 mins before so only managed a tiny amount, however i don't think i'm pregnant as had no real symptoms.

Can this delay it at all? just want it to come so i can start trying again next month!

i had one of these about 2 1/2 weeks ago and my cycle is up the shoot. it wouldn't surprise me if it does cause a delay.

I've had colposcopys every 3 months for 6 years and it's never delayed me hun but everyone is different

I wouldn't have thought so. If you had had it around ovulation and you were worried or stressed about it this may have delayed ovulation and subsequently your af. However once you have ovulated nothing will stop your period from coming unless you are pregnant! Do you know if you ovulated late or not?

It might delay it because it might be a stress to your body.. Mine didnt stress me but everybody is diff! x

Yes def ovulated well according to the clear blue smiley face!

Have had cramps but not pregnant did a test at the hospital and surely it would have been positive if i was as i am 15 dpo.

Im still quite sore from the biopsy that they did and didnt know if this would delay things, just want it out of the way now!

Never actually thought i would be wanting the witch to come!!

How long is your luteal phase usually?

caroline2806 · Sep 8th, 2009, 15:51 PM

15 days.

I would do another pregnancy test then in a few days. It's a confusing one! I just don't see any way the colposcopy could delay af. Only delayed ovulation can cause delayed af (or pregnancy obviously!) .
