Patient's question:
I just had a hysteroscopic polypectomy of the cervix a week ago. The blood I was bleeding two days ago was pink, but the blood I've been bleeding the past two days is bright red. The blood color became heavier after I lifted a water bucket two days ago. Is the problem serious? Will it be better in a couple of days?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description and specific circumstances. Hysteroscopic polypectomy may have some bleeding, which is a normal phenomenon. As long as the amount of bleeding is not excessive, it is usually normal within 10 days. Generally, it is recommended not to have sexual activity within half a month after hysteroscopic surgery. You have now been one week post-hysteroscopic surgery, and except for a very small amount of peeling, you can wait and see for a few more days. If the peeling is more significant, you can also take oral hemostatic medication. Follow-up check-up two weeks after surgery.
