Is It Safe To Take Over The Counter Medicine For Cold While Just Finishing LEEP Procedure?
Hi, I am 6 days removed from a LEEP procedure. According to my doctor, is was a minor one at that. I caught a cold from my son though, and I was wondering if it is ok to take over the counter Cold Medicine. I am treating the internal health with Manuka Honey. Which is extremely effective.
Hi. Welcome to HCM. Loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) is a procedure to check and treat conditions in a woman's lower genital tract. The lower genital tract includes the cervix (lower part of the womb) and vagina. LEEP uses a wire loop that is heated by an electric current to remove abnormal tissue in the cervix and vagina. For cold u can take medicine, anticold medicines usually are not dangerous after LEEP. But what i suggest is consult a doctor and take, dont just take pills from a pharmacist. Strictly follow the instructions given by your doctor after LEEP. Take care.
