A member asked:
It is 5wks after an abdominal myomectomy for the removal of 7 fibroids and i am still bleeding. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: A myomectomy causes scarring and contraction of the uterus that can lead to abnormal bleeding for up to 12 weeks after surgery, especially if some of the fibroids were into the cavity of the uterus. If heavy, see your doctor.
