I had a total hysterectomy only two weeks ago after 22 years of suffering with heavy bleeding pelvic pain and endometriosis and I'm 34 now...i was told a little staining would happen up to six weeks maybe..but everytime I get out of bed or go to toilet i can feel it coming out of me and such pressure..also the pain of going to actual toilet is horrendous..has anyone had similar? Sorry for TMI im just a little worried..

Gosh!! I am having a total hysterectomy in 9 days and your information (which is very good) has put me off now. I suppose I will really need to do the exercises the physio will give me post op!

I'm sorry for putting you off katrina what I do have to say is I don't have the same pain as endo pain..its after an operation pain and it's only been two weeks I just need to rest up more as I was pushing myself more than I should be..xx

I actually did go and get checked out cause I was worried..but no prolapse they said the stitches inside are dissolving and everything knitting together so I can bleed up to 6 weeks..and the pressure is because of this also..so Ive been told I've probably been moving around to much and just need to rest up more even when I feel better to take it slower..and I got speaking to another girl yesterday and she said she went through same thing but it's been 8 months post op and she feels brilliant now..so I'm being Postive on this..xx

Glad to hear you're feeling better and going to rest. I'm having a total hysterectomy too in 2 weeks. I'm almost 33 so similar age and had rough time with periods, pain and endo since I was about 14yrs old. I hope it proves successful for you xx

I wish you s the best for operation..!! Let me know how you get on..Honestly the difference in resting up more has really helped I have done nothing these last few days..The bleeding has died down and have my appetite back...my mood has lifted and I'm actually excited now for this year..! Xx

Ah Caroline I am really glad to hear that you are feeling much better and glad you have rested.

You sound really positive which is wonderful and I am glad you do...without wanting to sound cheesy - this could be your year, new beginnings! Take care xx
