Why does menstruation last longer after a hysterectomy for uterine fibroids?

Patient's question:

I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. After treatment, my period was delayed by more than ten days, and I don't know why. I want to ask why the period is prolonged by more than ten days after surgery for uterine fibroids?

Doctor's answer:

For patients with uterine tumors who do not wish to understand hospital treatment, they can use home self-treatment methods. The patient lies prone, and the practitioner stands beside them. Using the palm of the thumb, apply kneading to the Shenque (CV6), Qihai (CV6), Guanyuan (CV4), Tianhu (ST25), Sihe (EX-CA1), Kaixiangguilai (EX-CA2), Zongzi (CV8), Qichong (ST36), Xuehai (SP10), and Sanyinjiao (SP6) acupoints, with 1 minute for each point. Then, rub the abdomen with the palm of the hand until warm, place it on the lower abdomen, and make 36 clockwise abdominal massages. Next, change to 36 counterclockwise abdominal massages. Finally, use the palm to gently push the waist and back from top to bottom 10-15 times, until a sense of soreness and fullness is felt.
