Hi  had a hysterectomy because of womb cancer last week got up quickly last night and started spotting is it normal

  • Hi

    This can happen sometimes- as long as it’s just a bit of spotting, not too heavy and not painful. However to be on the safe side I would recommend giving the hospital a quick call. There should be a number on the discharge paperwork. Just so they are aware and can offer you some reassurance.

  • Hello jane2511 at the moment no more spotting I'm just  sitting down not moving  and I'm not in pain 

  • I didn't have any spotting at all but some ladies do, particularly if they over do things. On your discharge paperwork there should be a section with bleeding/spotting mentioned and what to do and a number to call if you are concerned. 

    You are also welcome to give the Macmillan support line a call and talk to one of the nurses for advice.
