I recently went thru a D&C and leap procedure in the past 4 months. I have irregular bleeding since that comes and goes on a day by day basis and noticed today that my uterus feels like a softball. Should I be worried and could it be something serious?

Hard and tender uterus
If you get a fever over 100.5 degrees or if the pain intensifies you should be seen by a doctor.
I am not sure if the two are related. You should have been seen by the doctor who did the LEEP and D&C about 6 weeks after the procedure. If you have not been seen you need to make an appointment. Your doctor should also work up this abnormal uterine bleeding. You did not mention whether or not you are at risk for becoming pregnant. If you could be pregnant I would get an ultrasound. Good luck.
Did you have a follow up visit? A LEEP procedure is usually done for precancerous tissue .In your follow up visit make sure the doctor examines you and if something abnormal is found have them schedule you for an ultrasound.
