Bleeding 5 weeks post hysterectomy
Posted , 6 users are following.
hi. i had a hysterectomy 5 weeks yesterday ( everything removed apart from my ovaries). never had any heavy bleeding, just a pink and brown discharge however, 2 days ago when i went to the toilet, i have noticed fresh blood . i am only bleeding everytime i used the toilet. yesterday the bleeding was heavier than 2 days ago. seen my doctor yesterday and she swabbed down below for any infection. she also took a blood sample and been told that they will phone me in a few days for result. does anybody had the same experience? im just a bit worried because it is my 5 weeks post op. never had any red bleeding for 4.5 weeks and then all of a sudden im bleeding only when i go to toilet. thanks

Hi Eugene85
You did the right thing by going to the doctor.
Earlier this week, I mentioned to another young lady that if you overdo, you may experience bleeding. Has that been the case?
I hope that you feel better. Keep in touch.
HUGS.

I know this post is a couple of weeks old, but I thought I'd reply anyway. I have a total hysterectomy w/ovaries removed via laparoscopy 5 weeks ago. My gynecologist warned that I may have light bleeding up to 8 weeks postop, because the internal sutures are dissolving, and it kind of tears a bit. He did say that if I bled heavy or prolonged that I should see him or emergency. I hope things are resolved for you. I'm looking forward to being recovered.
