Hi, Ive been experiencing twinges periodically on both sides of my lower abdomen. It was put down to PID last year but after taking several courses of antibiotics I still experience the same pain. I would like to add I am on the implant implanon and it is due out jan 2015. My cousin recently had her first smear test and it came back first stage of cancer so I am concerned this couls be a symptom. Do you know if I would be entitled to an early smear as I am only 22. I have also been spotting recently but put that down to the implant. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Even if you are 22 it is better you get PAP smear done. Your symptoms may not be related to cancer but since you said you have spotting at times it is better you get PAP smear done
