NO. Go back to your doc. I put up with bleeding when i knew it wasnt right. I went back yo my Doc a week post op, told me not to worry. Spent hours upon hours looking on internet to find an explanation. Nothing said continual bleeding was to be expected. went back at 6 weeks told me not to worry. It caused me so much anxiety every time bleeding got heavy. finally after 9 weeks, heavy bleeding & clotting Doc agreed not right. i thought myomectomy had failed & i would in fact indeed need a hysterectomy. went for a scan which showed still had little fibroids, could not get clear view of endometrium lining. was booked in for a hystroscopy to have a look. There turned out to be a fibroid in the inner cavity of uterus that was removed then & there with a myosure - day proceedure. I would insist on an internal scan, you could have an internal fibroid. I wish i had been a stronger advocate for my health rather than waiting 9 weeks. You trust your specialist & remain hopeful the problem will resolve.

Thank you so much, I feel better now. I was told it's normal but I was still worried. I most definitely will.
