Hi,

I've had a Bartholin cyst for almost 3 years. It got fairly big, but since it wasn't bothering me I just ignored it. Recently it started to get sore when I sat for longer periods of time, so I finally bit the bullet and had it taken care of. My doctor decided for marsupialization and I had the surgery Tuesday evening. Everything went fine and I went home the next day. The first couple of days I had a bit of spotting, like really dark blood. But then on Friday I started bleeding more, and haven't stopped yet. It's not a lot of blood and it's a darker red than it was on Friday, but it's constant and I'm wondering whether it's normal and will resolve on its own or if I should be worried? Otherwise I feel fine. I don't have a fever, I'm not in pain (though sitting is uncomfortable and I feel sore).

Anyone had a similar experience?
