Patient's question:
I had my last menstrual period on the 7.8th, and I underwent laparoscopic surgery on the 7.26th. It was a 7cm left ovarian cyst, and the pathology report indicated a unilocular mucinous cystadenoma. Since I'm still not divorced, the cyst was drained. The surgery went well, and there were no skin incisions during the hospital stay. I was discharged on July 31st. On August 2nd, I suddenly had dark brown discharge from below, and it has been three days now, with some discharge still present, but not much. Doctor, is this normal?Doctor's answer:
Your skin peeling may be related to your menstrual cycle, because you had an ovarian surgery, which can affect the endocrine function of your ovaries. This may lead to the premature shedding of your endometrium. Since the endometrium has not completely died, brownish fluid may be present.In your case, it should be normal and does not require any special tests. Just wait a few more days for observation. For severe ovarian cyst patients, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment. Avoid using medication blindly, as this may worsen the condition.
