Question 1

is heavy bleeding after emergency laparoscopic left salpingectomy for ruptured ectopic pregnancy anything to be concerned about?

Accepted Answer

Ectopic: bleeding: An ectopic (tubal) pregnancy produces extra hormones which make the lining of the uterus thicken, so when the pregnancy is removed, the lining will continue to bleed until the accumulated lining has been shed.  Ask your gyn surgeon to start you on low dose oral contraception (if there are no contraindications).  If the bleeding continues,  see your physician for an exam.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

: Bleeding of that frequency needs to be evaluated.  Please make an appointment to see a gynecologist if the bleeding continues.  It may represent something else going on in your uterus or other pelvic organs.

Question 3

4 weeks post tah and salpingectomy and was out with my fianc drinking, one thing led to another and had anal sex. i was supposed to refrain from sex for 6 wks.. what signs should i be looking for? no bleeding occurred.

Accepted Answer

Take it easy: Both drinking and engaging sex that soon after surgery were not advisable. From what you described, no harm seems to have occurred. Watchful waiting is okay. If you get bleeding, develop fever or pain, it would be prudent to contact your doctor.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex.
