Hi I had my ovaries and Fallopian tubes removed
on thursday, did anybody suffer with wind and
a bloated stomach,how long did you leave the
dressings on for.
many thanks
Hi , I haven’t had this surgery but I know someone who had her ovaries removed so am tagging her, wombat.23 as she might be able to help!
Having read up on ovary removal I do believe wind is normal as they can use a form of gas to ‘blow’ the area up so they have room to see and work!!
Hope you start feeling better soon! Sal xx
