It's ok: I'm not sure if this period was early or at the expected time. Either way I think you could consider this normal. The cervical lesion created by leep is healing at 10 days. The accompanying hormone changes and blood associated with menses could easily lead to a heavier and longer period. Bleeding is expected for 4+ weeks after LEEP. However, if the amount of bleeding concerns you, call you Doc
