A member asked:

I had an ovarian cyst removed now i am bleeding vaginally how do i know if its my period of something wrong my periods is not regular?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Most likely menses: Most likely you are having a menstrual cycle. Laparoscopic surgery should not directly affect vaginal bleeding, though removal of a cyst, with some kinds of cysts, may precipipate menses.
