Suffering From Cold After LEEP Procedure. Can I Take Over The Counter Medicine?
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!
LEEP is usually done as an outpatient procedure Most women are able to return to normal activities within 1 to 3 days after LEEP is performed. Recovery time depends on how much was done during the procedure.
you can take over the counter Cold Medicine but Ccall your doctor if you have fever too as it can be a complication of the procedure.
hope this helps!
