LEEP Discharge Instructions


 

You may resume a normal diet after returning home. Climbing stairs, walking, and light housework may be resumed at your own pace. You may resume driving 24 hours following surgery. No sexual intercourse, tampons, or douching for 4 – 6 weeks following surgery. You may shower anytime after returning home.

You may have mild cramping after this surgery. Expect light bleeding for a 1 – 2 weeks. It is normal to have a brown or yellowish discharge during the healing process for the first few weeks after surgery.

The following medications are recommended for mild cramping or discomfort:
