Bleeding-from TVH or cystocele repair??

I had a TVH W/cystocele and rectocele repair 3 wks ago today. First 10 days, no bleeding (except for small amount of rectal bleeding after first real bum). For the past 10 days, I have had a small amount of thin pink to reddish bleeding. No clots at all. It seems like it is coming more towards the front, not from vaginal bleeding. How can you tell which it is? I have an appt with the Dr in 3 days, but am afraid it's more of a bladder infection or something. I called a week ago, and they just said to take it easy, put my feet up a lot. It doesn't matter how much I rest-I've stayed 90% in bed w. no lifting the whole time, and it doesn't affect the amount of bleeding (positively or negatively) either way! Any experience/advice? Thank you!

I had a TVH the day before you did, but not with the repairs that you had. I have not experienced the type of bleeding that you have either.....if you are not having any pain along with the bleeding, hopefully it will be okay until you see your doctor. I would really push for an answer at your doctors appt. though.

OK. That helps a lot! I really feel it's related to the cystocele repair, and while we're all different, that helps to confirm my suspicions. Thanks! We'll see on Friday, I guess.

Good luck on Friday! I hope all goes well at your appt. and you can get some piece of mind on what is happening. You will have to let me know what they say.

I will keep my fingers crossed!
