Wet NOT Dry--please help
Different people react differently after surgery. For instance, I still have my ovaries, and I can tell I ovulate and go through my cycle each month -- but for the first time in my life I'm suffering with some rather annoying dryness. Then I read here that it sometimes takes a while to restore a good blood supply to the pelvic area after surgery. This problem is relenting somewhat, so I'm hopeful that it will resolve in time.
Maybe what you're experiencing is the opposite -- perhaps your fibroids, etc. were constricting the blood supply and since the surgery your system no longer has to "work overtime" to produce the lubrication you need, so now you're producing too much. Just a thought.
If you are experiencing pain or you think you might have an infection, then I'd call the doctor. Otherwise, I would just probably wait and see how things go for a while.
I hope others who have experienced this will come forth, because it's entirely possible that I am lacking in knowledge on this point...
to you.
