Contact your GYN: While some discharge may be present for up to 4 weeks after a LEEP procedure, we really expect bleeding to stop by the 2 week mark. Most would allow bathing after two weeks (showering before), but no douching. I believe your doctor would want to know you are still bleeding. Please contact her. Good wishes:)
