1740983 tn?1312873366 Some necrosing fibroids within the uterine cavity may be associated with abnormal vaginal discharge. I recommend that you be evaluated for more common causes fo vaginal discharge however such as vaginitis and STD's. Hotflashes are not caused by fibroids. Best wishes.
Avatar n tn The treating hospital or doctor prior to your discharge should have provided aftercare instructions post surgery. I have viewed surveys that evaluate hospital care and records provided there are some hospitals that do not provide adequate information upon discharge and the survey shows many of the patients are re-hospitalized that have not been given proper instructions.
Avatar f tn This is a subject to take up with your Gynecologist. As far as the discharge .... some discharge is not unusual but if from only one nipple and bloody it does need to be investigated. This could be an issue with the milk ducts including the possibility of a Papilloma which is a growth on the duct. These can be either benign or malignant. You are correct about needing to schedule a visit with the Dr. ... preferably a Breast Specialist if possible.

Avatar n tn by definition a hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus with or without the cervix, a seperate operation is called a bilater salphigo Ooperectomy which is the removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries, they are sometimes removed during a hysterectomy but not technically a part of a hysterectomy. Hyster means uterus in medicial terms.

Avatar n tn Hello, Generally, vaginal bleeding after hysterectomy is light. You may notice occasional spotting or a pink discharge. If bleeding after hysterectomy is as heavy as a menstrual period or lasts longer than six weeks then it needs evaluation. Pelvic cramps can be due to healing of stitches but if there is severe pain or any fever then any infection or adhesion formation should be ruled out.
