Not after a complete, but you might if you had a partial (leaving the cervix behind). Normal post operative bleeding lasts from several days to several weeks after surgery. After the first couple of days the bleeding turns into spotting, usually dark red but sometimes bright red. Then in most instances, the bleeding stops for good. Sometimes there may be a burst of bleeding at about 2-3 weeks if there was a collection of blood clot in the pelvis from right after the surgery. And occasionally at about 2 - 8 weeks after surgery, there may be some bright red vaginal spotting due to suture dissolving. The timing depends upon the type of suture used and how fast it dissolves. This may be spontaneous bright red spotting (it is rarely ever heavy) or it may happen after intercourse or physical activity. That is the normal course of usual postoperative vaginal bleeding. Sometimes, however, bleeding can occur at other times or even much later (up to years). Causes include: * granulation tissue (healing tissue growing on its own) * prolapse of a faloppian tube * endometriosis of the end of the vagina * atrophic vaginitis due to low estrogen levels and traumatic irritation * a cancerous growth at end of the vagina You will need to have a vaginal speculum exam to look at the end of the vagina. Most likely you have some granulation tissue at the end of the vagina. On appearance it would look like a dark red, beefy friable polypoid growth at the end of the vagina. It bleeds easily with touching. The treatment is to biopsy it away and use vaginal sulfa or other antibiotic cream. There usually are no pain fibers at all. If it hurts at all during biopsy, it may represent a prolapsed tube if only a hysterectomy was performed without removing the tubes and ovaries. A prolapsed tube more often causes pain rather than bleeding and it may need to be removed under anesthesia rather than in the office. This bleeding is not a serious problem but be sure to see your doctor.
It could be a lot of things, but you need to see a doctor urgently.
Go and see your doctor.
It may be inconvenient, but it's very typical on depo provera
Yes
It could be a cervical change that can cause vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding can also be a symptom of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. Another cause for bleeding during pregnancy is a miscarriage although the first two reasons for bleeding are more common, it is still a good idea to contact your doctor if you are too concerned.
Yes. The Pill doesn't completely eliminate bleeding. What it does is fools the body into thinking that it's pregnant, so spot bleeding is relatively common.
No. It is a public pool and depending on the cause of your bleeding you could get it infected or spread what you have.
Pregnancy is unlikely, but not impossible while on Depo. However, all people are different as well as their genetic make-up, so some individuals do spot while others do not. I've been on it for 5 years, and usually after surgery I do spot. But in the first year, I bleeding 4 months after I received the injection and had to return to the doctor's office to obtain an estrogen (female hormone) injection and the bleeding diminished.
go to the doctor
To stop severe bleeding you can tie a cloth just above the bleeding spot to restrict blood flow. In these cases more advanced medical care will need to be received.
Post or pots or spot
Yes, it's normal to sometimes spot-bleed while pregnant. I'm presuming that you're in the first half of your pregnancy? Spot-bleeding can sometimes happen around the time of the month where you would have been having your period although the most common reason for spot-bleeding is to do with the placenta. What happens is that as the uterus grows, the placenta, which is attached to the inside wall of the uterus, is pulled around a bit as the wall of the uterus grows and sometimes a tiny area here and there can come loose (sort of pulls away due to the growing) and you may see some bleeding. It will re-attach itself without a problem. This is more common in the first months of pregnancy. Best advice is to rest a little more than usual at these times, drink more water and DON'T worry! It's normal and everything will be ok!
