Call surgeon now!: Please call your surgeon now! A pad an hour of bleeding is not from an "exam." If you are still bleeding a pad an hour and cannot reach your surgeon, go back to the ER. I would insist on a surgical consult in the ER if the ER doc does not give you a satisfactory explanation or do appropriate lab work or other studies.
