i’m 8 days post-op from my myomectomy & i started my cycle 😢. i needed a real review of why i’m in so much pain (haven’t had my 2 weeks post-op checkup yet) BUT YES!!! “my uterus is finna fall out” is the best explanation. the pressure and cramps is 9/10, but i’m dramatic as well. i started back struggling with standing upright. lower back pain. bladder hurts. i have to hold the area around my incision when im peeing because of the sharp pains (then again i’m still only 8 days post-op)
i was prescribed ibuprofen 800mg & oxy when i was discharged so i kind of relied on them the first 2 days but i don’t like the groggy feeling of taking either one so i started taking half a pill, hugged a pillow, stayed off my feet, wore socks & lots of water (it’s day 3 & i think i will try drinking tea before bed).
i also had my third bowel movement since i was discharge on the first day of my cycle and it was honestly one moment i felt relief from the cramps and pressure.
thank your for sharing your experience ❤
Oh boy I’m scheduled for mine tomorrow and my period starts the week after now you got me scared lol. How are you feeling now ? Also I’m wishing you a speedy recovery and that they don’t return !
hey. i started doing so much better right after my cycle went off. at 2 weeks my incision was healing well & at 4 weeks it was completely closed and healed. i pray your surgery goes well and i hope you have a speedy recovery.
side note: miralax or prune juice helped me have more frequent bowel movements
I had my surgery about a month ago. I started my period the day before surgery and am currently having my first one afterwards. I’m in tears because im like “did y’all get them all out?” So this was kinda calming to hear.
Heeeey! Yeah I totally know the feeling. The smallest thing makes me think “are they back?” But I have to just keep believing God that fibroids will NOT return! I’m so glad that the video helped you, I pray that you continue to heal well ❤️
Thank you, I pray the same for you!
I have surgery tmr and I just started my cycle 2day 😭
@@Lb2Shay ; prayers sister 🥴 you’ll be fine though!
Same for me, the first day was the worse I had to go to the ER room because the pain was unbearable. The flow wasn’t heavy at all, but that pain from healing and uterus trying to contract I had to get pain medicine…I have a high tolerance for pain. So when I had to go to the ER my doctor knew it was bad. The next day wasn’t bad, very light and easy.
I’m my 2nd cycle now. The pain I feel it, but it wasn’t as bad as the first one. I was told the first 2 cycle may be a lil rough.
The heating pad definitely irritates the incision. I couldn’t use it how I I wanted to
Thank you for sharing your story !! Mine is scheduled next month and I am psyching myself out because I have multiple. Biggest being 6.5cm. But watching your story is very calming
Hey! You are so welcome! I know everything will go well!! You got this girlfriend!!
Just diagnosed with Uterine fibroids this past week and your videos have been very helpful. My last period was so painful and now my kidneys are being damaged so i need a kidney surgery already and I haven't seen an OB Yet. Smdh when it rains it pours. 🙏🙏🙏
Hey! I am so sorry to hear about that! I am definitely praying for you. Thank you for finding my videos so helpful❤️❤️
Just got my first period today after 3 weeks post my myeomectomy, I don't know what he'll feels like but I'm sure I'm one step in hell. The pain is unbearable. The headache, the heat on my abdomen....
I feel reassured that I'm not going through this alone.
So sorry for the last response but I hope that you are feeling much better and recovering well!!! It gets better I promise 💕
I'm exactly 3 weeks post op. Got my period yesterday. Yesterday was sooo painful. My lower left back felt like it was on fire. I took the oxycodone and it did not help😳. I was in bed all day. I got up 2am and took the ibuprofen and was able to sleep. Today is day 2 and omg I am bleeding so heavily to the point I leaked out on my car ride back from grocery shopping 😭. Was not expecting it to come back with a vengeance!
Awww man 😳 I hope you are feeling better!
@@MikaylaMJones Yes! By day 3 I was feeling better.
I'm 3 weeks post op too. Started my period too and omg it was very painful. I had pain on left side as well. Hopefully the next ones are better.
@@trulyworkfromhome6767 It got better.😇
Thanks you for this video, super helpful ❤ my first period was 2 weeks post op and was super light I was expecting that to be the case moving forward. 2nd post op period at 6 weeks and it feels similar to what I experienced before the surgery. Your video is so reassuring. I was feeling the pain in the area my largest fibroid was removed. Was wondering if that’s due to the uterus contracting where it’s healing ? But I will keep in touch with my doctor and monitor it for a while ❤
Continuing to pray for your healing!
Thank you for every info and encouragement that you give through ur videos.
Aww thank you for watching ❤️
I thought birth control would make the period lighter instead of heavy. Perhaps that bleeding is also a sign of healing?? May the Most High continue to heal you and grant you ease during this recovery. When you talked about the pressure, I was grimacing and clenching my lower abdomen. Flash back of terrible cramps I'd experience.
Yeah I thought the same about BC so I was very surprised that I was in such pain lol but I was told by my doctor that my 1st period after the surgery could be painful! I believe Aunt Flo should be showing up in a couple days so we will see how it is now lol.
I felt the same way, and I had my surgery in April. And it felt like water coming down my leg with pain. I just don't understand. I pray this get better for us ladies.
Aww man! I hope that you are feeling a lot better!!!
@Mikayla's Pearls yes much better. Thank you so much. We have to take care of ourselves.
Hi! I’m 6 weeks post op and wanted to send you some encouragement. It gets so much better. I still have some hardness on my incision but massaging the area helps a lot. I hope your next period was better! Mine used to be long but have bow gotten tons better.
Wishing you the most positivity on your TTC journey- we are on it together :)
Hows the birth control going? I’ve heard mixed things about taking it, something about hormone disruption.
Thank you so much for the encouragement!!! I am now approaching the 6 weeks post & I can say I’m feeling better. Still dealing with the hardest as well but I haven’t been massaging the area so I will try to do more of that! Uhh… the birth control has been a issue for me as far as hormonal imbalance! I was already VERY against taking BC but I was trying to do as I was told too however I believe this will be my last cycle taking it, I just don’t want to keep pumping that stuff in my body lol
Yes my period seem worse i didnt have bad cramps juat bleeding. That thing came back heavy and hurt. I hope it gets er otherwise im getting a hysterectomy um sick of these periods
Am now 5 months after the surgery, but I first had my period for three months normally but now I don't see any blood a part from dirty smelly reddish discharge,i don't know what to do
Hey! I know for sure the first couple of periods after the surgery for me were a little off but if you are concerned I would definitely check with my doctor if I were you! Personally I didn't experience smelly discharge months after the surgery, only for a few days after my surgery.
Holy poly that's scary I hv periods coming up 7 days after my surgery
Good morning dear friend great job great upload stay safe and healthy 💖 thanks for sharing this information i am also have this problem 🥲 🌹 stay connect thanks 💐
Aww! Thanks you for watching! I will be praying for you❤️
I just had my surgery 6 weeks ago, I bled 13 days after with a lot of pain. The doctor said the fibroid was stuck to the uterine wall and she had a hard time removing it as well as opening me. I had a tummy tuck several years prior and had some really tight muscle. It was rough in the hospital and I bled so much came home anemic. I also bled 13 days post op quite a bit. I was relieved for 7 days then once again bleeding again, I was instructed to use birth control post op to help the bleeding didn’t do much. I took it out when I was due to remove and I bled more. I guess that was my period, it has since stopped almost 12 days. I’m not sure when I will have another period but I hope it’s more forgiving.
Omg, that sounds terrible! I hope you are doing a lot better and feeling alot better! I pray that your next period is easier and that the bleeding will not be heavy!
Girllllll imma lord Jesus
Do you have to go on birth control because it disrupts the menstrual cycle especially if it is 28 days i dont want to use birth control i prefer abstainance
Hey! Great question! I was put on birth control after surgery to prevent pregnancy for 6 months while my uterus heals especially because my husband and I did not want to use any other protection. However, I did not stay on the bc for long because I didn’t like altering my hormones.
@@MikaylaMJones how long were you on birth control
Hi beauty im experiencing the heavy bleeding after 17 days post up im scared and anxious hoping it will be better
Aww man!! Was it time for your cycle to start? Cycles tend to differ after surgery!
I am so grateful with the immediate fibroid treatment I got through Dr Ogie channel on UA-cam keep on the good work doc...
