It could be part of your natural healing
process, as you say it has only been a
week.
When is your follow up with your
doctor/surgeon?
Maybe ring them and let them know.
Some simple causes are: some endo tissue
left in the cervix is affected by hormones
causing a light monthly spotting.
If you have any pains, nausea, blurred
vision, dizziness then get yourself to
urgent care.
You are probably bleeding from the
surgical wound where the uterus was cut
from the vagina. Consult your gynecologist
IMMEDIATELY!!!
