Me too. I wonder if it is our bodies telling us to still not go too mad. I rested up taking ibuprofen next day all OK. The good thing I believe is that it is now a healing pain, that's what I feel anyway. Hope you continue to do well.
Best wishes
Kim

Hi, for me ,my Gyn today and asked her about the "cramps" feeling and in plain English she said our bodys are still adjusting and things inside are moving and scar tissue pulling.Don't overdue! that causes strain which causes pulling which causes discomfort!!

I've only been taking black cohash for 28 days and it doesn't seem much yet --of course we are having some real hot weather too-- but the directions ( with all brands that I looked at) said results for full benefit is 4 to 12 weeks!!!!!! So I'm going to stick it out. My Gyn said HRT would work in 2 weeks, so I may be suffering for nothing?!

Sorry, I got bounced off, if an HRT isn't working for you tell your doctor, he can give you something else, everyone is different so one thing may work for someone else, but not you.Good luck

Feels like cramps
I just got this computer and I am just learning how to use it hope it works I am 4 weeks post-op of total vaginal which they told me is the quickest recovery. I am still having cramps and sharp pains The GI dr. I went to said the body just has to get back to normal I still have to take tylenol and colace . So much for "quick" recovery. I was wondering if anyone else that had vaginal felt the same way.
