My Jp Drain Is Out. But My Pee, On The Other Hand...



Recommended Posts

Embarrassing question!

My JP drain came out on Thursday, a week and a day post-op.

While that felt WONDERFUL to be rid of, now I seem to have another problem. It appears as though I am passing Fluid not unlike what I found in my drain. Not just when I pee, but as a mucousy/bloody discharge in my pantaloons. The doc said I would absorb the fluid now that it's not being drained, but is this what happens?

I'm a couple of weeks away from getting my period, so I know it's not that.

Anyone go through this? Not sure if I need to worry.. thanks!!

The surgery does change up your menstrual cycle so don't necessarily rule that out.

Surgery can bring on your menses. You are not draining abdominal Fluid through your vagina, so grab a pad or a tampon and treat it as a period.
