Is it normal to have dark red menstruation after an ovarian cyst surgery?

Patient's question:

Here is the English translation of your text, with the carriage returns kept as they are:
"8th surgery for ovarian cyst laparoscopic operation, this month 10th day of menstruation, first day has both dark red and bright red, and less. Last month 8th day ovarian cyst laparoscopic surgery, want to ask you, after surgery next month's menstrual blood first day dark red and bright red mixed is normal?"

Doctor's answer:

This is normal. The dark red blood indicates some blood residue in your uterus, which will be expelled from your body as your menstrual period arrives. The bright red blood is fresh blood from newly ruptured vessels. Please do not worry. Since this is the first menstrual period after the surgery, the ovaries are relatively fragile at this time and are prone to swelling. Therefore, pay attention to keeping warm and carefully monitor the duration of your menstrual period, as well as any dull pain on the surgical side. If necessary, undergo an ultrasound examination. If the postoperative recovery is good, there is generally no major issue.
