Thank you replying to my message. as far as I am aware the Colposcopy will be just to look and see if any gross pronblems are evident and that the cautery will be performed to seal the cells. Sorry to labour the point but will this be a long term resolution to the bleeding? as if not,I would rather bleed than have a pointless proceedure. Whilst I stated in my previous message intercourse was "raumatic"- this is mainly due to the bleeding and pain is not usually a problem. I was wondering if this may shed more light on what may be occuring?.

Thanks again.
