Brownish Discharge?

I am 4 weeks post-op, TVH. I have a slight brownish discharge and am wondering if this is okay. I use a mini-pad about four times a day. I also have occasional "phantom" abdominal cramps. Does anyone else have this, too? I will be seeing my doc next week for a check-up as I'm going back to work the week after.

I am also 4 weeks out from TVH. Brown spotting could be sutures desolving. I have it too and my Dr. has seen it and that is what he said. I have had cramping too but I have my ovaries. If you kept ovaries you may still get cramping during ovulation. Mention it to your Dr. though just to be sure.

Hi there!

Sounds like it may be old blood....I had the same thing and then it changed to yellow (healing sutures I was told) by then it was 8 weeks and soon after nothing...yea!!!!

I think you are NORMAL!!! Things DO get better!!

wow, this is what my doctor said to me on Monday and I thought it sounded weird. Now I can feel relaxed knowing that others are going through this.

hysterectomy 7-28-2004 kept ovaries & cervix

operation 3-24-2005 to remove cervix.


still having pain.... going back to work Monday. :-(

One4all - my mom had TAH/BSO Sept.03 & she still has phantom cramps. Especially if me or her best friend is on our period. Wierd, huh? She asked the dr. & he says there's really no explanation. Our bodies are so cool.
