Is it normal to bleed ten days after cervical erosion repair surgery?

Cervical erosion can cause increased vaginal secretions, leucorrhea with an unpleasant odor, and a burning sensation in the vulva. It can return to normal after cervical erosion repair surgery. Common surgical methods include polypectomy and cone biopsy. The surgery will cause certain trauma to the cervix. There will be a small amount of vaginal bleeding after the operation. Excessive bleeding requires the use of hemostatic drugs. It is abnormal to still have bleeding after ten days, and timely measures should be taken.

What to do if there is excessive bleeding after cervical erosion surgery

Cervical erosion is considered a high-risk factor for cervical cancer. Early detection and treatment can greatly reduce the incidence of cervical cancer. A small amount of bleeding after surgery is normal, but if the amount of bleeding exceeds the normal menstrual volume and lasts for a long time, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to check the cause.

Bleeding after cervical erosion surgery is generally leucorrhea with blood, or blood clots, blood, or some yellow clear liquid will flow out of the vagina, which may continue until the next menstruation. These are all normal. If the amount of bleeding is heavy, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up visit in time. The doctor will check the recovery of the cervix, whether the bleeding is normal or not, and whether it has caused other lesions. Then, stop the bleeding in time. You can choose some high-efficiency drugs for anti-inflammatory, hemostatic, and blood stasis treatments.

After surgery for cervical erosion, you should pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, wash the vulva frequently, do not use vaginal suppositories or perform vaginal douching on your own if bleeding occurs, change your underwear frequently, use sanitary pads when necessary, and seek medical attention if the situation is not good.

Warm reminder: Some patients with mild cervical erosion are unwilling to seek treatment because they feel the symptoms are mild, not obvious, and have little impact on their body and life. However, experience tells us that cervical erosion is difficult to heal on its own. Without treatment, the condition will only become more and more serious, causing not only physical and mental damage, but also increased treatment costs.

Precautions after cervical erosion surgery

1. After treatment, vaginal secretions increase, and there may even be a large amount of watery discharge. There may be a little bleeding when the scab falls off 1-2 weeks after the operation.

2. Bathing, sexual intercourse and vaginal douching should be prohibited during the period when the wound has not yet completely healed (4-8 weeks after surgery).

3. Physical therapy may cause postoperative bleeding, cervical stenosis, infertility, and infection. Regular follow-up should be conducted after treatment to observe the healing of the wound until it is fully healed, and attention should be paid to whether there is cervical stenosis.
