Stupid question ....



Recommended Posts

I know this is going to make me sound stupid but how would you know if you have internal bleeding vs your cycle. I had a friend that had the sleeve and after about a month she lifted something too heavy and had vaginal bleeding. They told her she was far enough past surgery that it was ok. Has anyone else experienced or heard that? My cycles are irregular (sorry to share too much) I'm sure I'm due soon and I have tiny spotting but how do I tell the difference?

I am day 4 out of surgery,no fever, feel fine and taking pain meds only once a day now. I get around well and I took shower. All in all that is the only concern I have is about the spotting. And I have terrible cotton mouth.

Your reproductive tracts and digestive tracts are not connected -- nothing involving bleeding from surgery would come out of your vagina in any way that I can imagine.

Your body gets out of wack from the anesthesia and the shock to your system. Next month you should be right as rain

A lot of people have breakthrough bleeding after surgery or any other trauma. It may end up being a full on bleed or just spotting but it's really typical after such a shock to the system. Bleeding from surgery would likely come out in vomit or stool not vaginal bleeding.

I have had the same thing happen. I thought it was just me.
