Small Bleeding After Hysterectomy Posted: 02-04-06 10:39am
I am having a small amount of bleeding
after a Hysterectomy 3 months ago. I have
gone for 2 follow ups and the Dr
cauterized the incision with Silver
Nitrate vaginally twice. I still bleed a
small amount should I let him cauterize
again? Should I be duesching with
something or rinsing with normal
saline?

It doesn't seem that a vaginal douche will
complicate your condition. You will have
to go to your gynecologist again to
control vaginal bleeding.
