Patient's question:
Twenty days ago, my friend had a hysteroscopy surgery to remove fibroids under the endometrium. Before the surgery, my friend had daily bowel movements. After the surgery, constipation returned, and she couldn't pass stools. Up to now, she often experiences two or three days without bowel movements without feeling anything, even after drinking senna leaves. Hello, does constipation and inability to pass stools occur after hysteroscopy surgery?Doctor's answer:
Performing a hysteroscopy examination will never cause constipation or difficulty in defecation. If you are experiencing constipation or difficulty in defecation, it is essential to receive effective treatment. It is recommended that you avoid spicy and irritating foods in your daily diet and consume more fresh vegetables and fruits. Increase your intake of roughage-rich foods, drink plenty of water, and consider drinking some honey water appropriately. Maintain a regular schedule and avoid overtime work.
