Post Op Vaginal Bleeding
Hi
I had a TAH, and just had some spotting immediately after surgery. I wore a pad while I was in the hospital, and after I got home I wore a panty liner for a couple of weeks, not cause I needed it, but cause it's a hard habit to break!
Best wishes!

Post Op bleeding
I had very light bleeding the first two days, hardly enough for a pad! Nothing since then.
I believe it makes a difference if you are having your cervix removed or not. I had mine removed. With stitches at the top of the vagina, the only bleeding is from there and nothing bleeding or draining from inside.

Post Op Vaginal Bleeding
I had my cervix removed when I had my TAH/BSO done and I had very light bleeding after the immediate post op bleed was done.
I wore thin maxi pads usually so thats what I used (more comfy) while in the castle and for about 2 days after I was home. By then it was nothing more than light pink discharge.
Nothing since!

Post Op Vaginal Bleeding
I had a TAH and bled for 10 days after my surgery. It was mostly when I went to the bathroom. I wore pads for about a month as the bleeding turned to a pinkish discharge which gradually tapered off to clear by 4 weeks post. Some women see no blood at all and others like me see quite a bit. I was actually crying one night my first week home because here I had no uterus and was still bleeding all the time. I thought it was never going to stop. I had my surgery because of constant periods. Thank God, I'm finally free of pads forever!!!
