TVH Totally confused!

During my 5th week checkup I thought my doctor said as long as I feel some discharge it means I still have stitches that have not dissolved. Doctor said i had a couple of stitches not yet dissolved. She said wait two weeks. As I am now 8 weeks I called the doctor and of course spoke with the nurse, informing her I still have a slight clear discharge and perhaps undisolved stitches. She said a discharge has nothing to do with the stitches so I could have sex and take my baths.

As far as discharge goes, i didnt have any that far out, but i can tell you the cuff sutures can stay in a long time!! I was released for all activity, including sex and baths, at 6 weeks and still had most sutures intact! (I still had stitches at 5 mos, but that is not normal and a whole different story!!). Can you speak with dr yourself and confirm? Worth it just for peace of mind. And i have always heard it is not unusual to have drainage when sutures are dissolving.

I am assuming you had sex after the 6 weeks with sutures still in tact..?

Clear discharge could just be normal vaginal fluid...

Can you get an appt to have your Dr. check?

Scheduling an appointment for next week. Thanks.....so tired of the poking. We hystersisters have no privacy now. Lol

Hi, I'm 4-5 weeks post TVH and was given the all clear to do everything yesterday bath and sex, I still have 1 stubborn stitch and discharge but my doc said that will go with help from resuming normal activities ��
