A member asked:
How soon can i wear a tampon after undergoing a colposcopy?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Ask your doc: He or she should have already told you this like I do to my patients, i tell my pts to wait 2 weeks as sometimes the tampons could cause the biopsy site to bleed again.

3-4 days: Assuming a simple biopsy was done, wait 3-4 days for it to heal. If no biopsy, you don't have to wait.
