Is It Normal To Have Light Bleeding And Cramping Post Complete Hysterectomy With Bilateral Salpingectomy?
I had a complete hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy on 12/10/2013. My diagnosis was severe endometriosis, fribroid tumors, adenomyosis, and uterine polyps. Also during the surgery, a Gastrointestinal Surgeon was brought in to detach my uterus and cervix from my colon and rectum. Everything was done my the davinci robot (thank goodness). I've been having some light bleeding and cramping lately. Should I be concerned?

Hello ma'am and welcome.
Light bleeding and cramping would be anticipated ma'am. But this should not be a side effect that is seen after a long gap from the surgery. So if this does last for a long period of time and does not subside then do report it to your doctor.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
