3 weeks postop and woke up to brown blood?
Hi all,
I had a LAVH on 2/11 and am now 3 weeks postop. Sorry if TMI but I have really had very minimal to almost nonexistent yellowish beige discharge the last 2 weeks of my recovery. All of a sudden today I notice a decent amount of brown blood. Is this normal?

My dr. told me to expect that as part of healing. I will be 4 weeks on friday & still have no discharge. He told me on monday at my 3 week checkup that I will have it.

In talking with my doc at my 3 week check up today, it is normal at this time as stitches are healing. All the best!

All part of normal healing week3/4 stitches dissolve this can last 3-10 days sometimes longer, if not heavy bleeding or any odor then it's normal
Take care hugs

Re: 3 weeks postop and woke up to brown blood?
I'm glad I'm not alone in this! I also have some crampy type feeling. Anyone get this? The brown is light to medium flow. Stitches dissolving would cause this??

Re: 3 weeks postop and woke up to brown blood?
Yes that is normal too Hun, the checkpoint by week on here is great to read and take away any concerns, mine didn't happen until end of week 2 and lasted 2 weeks, I am 4 weeks post op and still cramping, slow process but take time to heal, even when you feel great don't over do it I did a bit too much at week 3 suffering now

Re: 3 weeks postop and woke up to brown blood?
I am about 2 1/2 weeks out and mine is brownish as well. I started bleeding the first week after surgery. It isn't heavy though just light and very little cramping if any.
