Question for sisters with ovaries but no cervix

Dear Sisters with ovaries but no cervix:

I'm wondering what your normal day-to-day vaginal fluids are like, once the bleeding and spotting are over. My spotting seems to be coming to an end at 9 weeks and I'm not sure what to expect.

Thanks - Cathy

I am just at 6weeks and I have ovaries but no cervix. I only had spotting for a day after surgery and nothing at all since.

I spotted for almost 3 weeks and now everything seems very noraml like it was in "the good old days "

Hi
I had mine July 12th 2006.TAH with Bladder Sling. No cervix.. kept Overies.. I barley spotted in the hosp. Didn't even wear a pad home I don't think. The only spotting was when a stich got pulled.
I havn't felt this good in YEARS. Sex is better then before .DH LOVES the fact there is no 7 day + break anymore so AM I.
I do have to say I am a fast healer. I am back to normal and have been since 6 weeks. can lift anything with no hesitation.

i may be wrong but i think you were asking about other vaginal fluids...not just spotting/bleeding, right? i've lost count where i am...erm...let's see...5 months yesterday...woohoo! i have one ovary and find i still have some sort of discharge most days. for ages it was a yellowish discharge. now that happens every once in a while and most days it's a milky white. doc says all is fine. so, so far it seems that Lonesome Lefty (my left and left-behind ovary) is pumping away.

just today i was wondering if/when i'll ever stop looking to see if i'm bleeding/leaking. i spent so much time/energy worrying about my cascading period and now i'm still programed to check! crazy but true.

hope i've answered your question. btw, how's life in pdx? i used to live there.

Thanks, Yes I was wondering about the fluids after the spotting is gone. Sounds like I may be back to normal soon - I hope!

Portland is as odd as ever. Wonderful alternative contingent and VERY cosmo old town and Pearl district - you wouldn't recognize it! Politics are as contentious as ever, now that election season is here.

ah yes pdx politics...always good for a laugh. i've heard about the pearl district. sounds wild. i think i heard that portland center stage has a new space in the amory. weird. i lived there from '89-'98 (on and off...had a few adventures in between).

i think that many women tend to be a bit "drier" than i am describing but so far that has not been a problem for me. i've also had only one ovary for five years.

hope that helps.

wave to statue of portlandia for me. :-)

Hmmmm, I have to say it is like it was in the "waaayyy olden days". A slightly milky discharge. Not smelly or gross, just a slight something there sometimes. Doc says it is normal.
And I have to admit to "looking" myself. I never knew when the flood would happen. It is a habit I am looking forward to giving up! LOL.

Now I feel like an idiot. The pale white discharge I've had over time -- are ya'll saying it's from the ovaries? I never realized that. Jeepers, don't I feel like a goon! I'm just 3 weeks post and no discharge at all to date. Too funny, NewYorkGal, about always looking for stuff. Even when I pee at night I turn the light on now to see if anything is on the tissue. I thought I was getting OCD or something but thanks for letting me know I'm normal!

What body part produce our lubrication? That is my new question? I am only three weeks myself and have had only 2 days of spotting in the hosipital, but some mild discharge (kinda the normal pre TAH)

What happens to HIS discharge if our cervix is closed? I know TMI, Just wondering with too much thinking time on my hands
