13 days and still spotting?? Is this normal?

Hi, I am 13 days post op today and I am still spotting from LAVH on 7/28. The spotting is darker. Just wondering if this is normal and how long does this normally last?

Spotting for 4-6 weeks can actually be normal! Might be less time for some, longer for others. Darker generally signifies older blood rather than a new issue. Pink or a red color could indicate newer blood and possibly overdoing it a bit.

Also, as one starts to increase her activity level, it is not uncommon to have some additional spotting.

Don't hesitate to check with your doctor about any of your concerns!
