Bladder pain ?: At 56, and without oral hormone supplementation, post-hysterectomy prolapse (lack of support for the bladder dropping the bladder on abdominal strain) will cause what you describe. See your gyn provider for advice on estrogen supplementation, or even surgical repair of the prolapse if found.

Who do you go to if your bladder has dropped and needs to be fixed? I am a female in really good health but had a complete hysterectomy in jan.1992; now 20 years later, my bladder has dropped into my vagina area. This causes my bladder not to drain well.

Pain in stomach on lower right side after a hysterectomy back starts to hurt also. Pain intensifies with gas, constipation, or fullness in bladder. I have heard other women who have had hysterectomies complain of this pain.
