Just an update on this. Vaginal bleeding was a symptom of a new tumour at the top of my vagina. I had medication and had it zapped with radiotherapy within weeks of the scan. Any unexpected bleed needs investigating immediately.
Anyone had vaginal bleeding a year or so after debulking? I had complete hysterectomy, bowel resection and stoma plus omentum and liver surgery.
I have been on Niraparib since March and have been really well. I started bleeding yesterday morning just spotting at first. Since then more bleeding and overnight. It is bright red. I don’t understand this and wonder if it’s a reoccurrence of my peritoneal cancer.
Hello Onk
I would think that this is best reported to your doctor so that you can be checked out and hopefully reassured. Give them a call rather than sit and worry. The bleeding is happening for a reason and whatever that reason is, it is better to find out. It may well be nothing to be concerned about but I always think it is better to err on the side of caution.
You could give the Support Line a call and speak with one of the nurses but I would think they would probably say to get checked. You are welcome to call though if you feel talking it through first would help. Number is at the bottom of this.
Good Luck

Well done, hopefully you will hear back soon. That is a good point though about the gardening, it could well be an explanation. I had my hysterectomy last year and have been told to report any bleeding but also that over doing things, even when healed can sometimes cause a bit of bleeding. Although I have not had bleeding, I still get a lot of aches and pains there when I over do things- and that is often gardening too. Good luck
My blood pressure normally goes up when I am stressed too. I hope tomorrow goes ok with the nurse. Good luck
That's good to hear, what ever is causing it, it's best they check it out. I hope the scan is done quickly and that it brings reassurance
