Patient's question:
On May 15th, I had a cervical polyp surgery. For nine days before the surgery, I had some discharge, and on the tenth day, I started bleeding, which was a bit less than my menstrual period. The abdominal pain felt like menstrual cramps. I had my period on the 5th of last month. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, this is mainly due to the fact that the postoperative recovery has not yet been fully completed. It is recommended to pay attention to rest, maintain good personal hygiene, and take precautions to prevent infection. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and be mindful of avoiding overexertion. First, carefully observe and wait. If the bleeding continues, go to the hospital for an ultrasound after one month to check the recovery of the uterus. There are many treatment methods for cervical polyps, but since the patient's condition is different, the diagnostic methods used will also vary. Therefore, it is advised that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible after noticing the symptoms.
