Patient's question:
I am 29 years old this year. During my physical examination, the doctor told me that I might need to have a detailed gynecological examination, mainly focusing on the uterus. Please ask: What is the reason for bleeding after surgery for uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Patients are generally placed with a uterine tamponade through the vagina during a uterine fibroid removal surgery to ensure thorough examination of the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and the back of the uterus, providing sufficient space for the operation. This repositions the uterus, and as a result, there may be a small amount of vaginal bleeding post-surgery, which is normal. The following of blood is a normal phenomenon. However, if the bleeding lasts for less than two weeks, you should seek medical attention and visit the hospital for a follow-up examination as soon as possible.
