Partial hysterectomy with monthly bleeding Posted: 12-11-06 10:48am
I had a partial hysterectomy in 1998. I
still have my ovaries. I had the partial
because I was bleeding non-stop, I cant
remember what my Dr. called it.
Anyway, I still bleed. For about the past
year, I spot about once a month.
Sometimes, it's kind of heavy lately. I
also cramp very badly, all of the time.
My question is, What do you think it
possibly could be? & is it normal?
A partial hysterectomy indicates that the
body (corpus) of the uterus was removed
but that the cervix remains. This vaginal
bleeding, once a month, followed by cramps
is not normal and you HAVE TO visit your
gynecologist immediately!
