spotting 4wks post-op TAH.

Hello, I had my TAH on 06/25/12, still have both ovaries. Everything went great, I only stayed over nite in the hospital. I didn't ha e much bleeding at all, only the day of surgery and the following morning and that was it. Well, today(4 wks post op) I noticed when I went to bathroom and wiped I had spotting everytime. Not bright red, but light pink. Is this normal? All answers/advice welcome. Thank you.

Re: spotting 4wks post-op TAH.

I too am 4 weeks post op and have been bleeding lightly on and off for the past 5 days now. I went to see my doctor on Monday. He told me there was nothing to worry about, BUT, this may be a sign that my body wants me to slow down a bit and rest more often. As long as it is not gushing, or painful, he advised me to lay down ever so often during the day. That seems to work. when I rest, the bleeding stops.
I have a vaginal cuff, and am worried that I may have torn the stitches. So I will take Doctors advice and rest more.
Hard to do though, as I am feeling pretty good, and want to get back to more of my normal activities.
