Bleeding from a recent LEEP procedure can continue especially if the newly removed cervical site is irritated by a tampon or sexual activity. Best is to see your physician who performed the LEEP for an exam and possible cautery of the LEEP site.

Place a tissue or pad in the vaginal area and wipe the rectal area. If you see blood it is from the rectal area
