Suture clips

I had a total laproscopic hysterectomy 8 weeks ago.  I had a small, brownish, triangular item come out which caused bleeding for a couple of hours.  I was told it was probably a suture clip.  Should these come out?  should I be concerned?

hi...who told you it was a suture/staple?   If it  was your Dr or Nurse rest assured. It sounds like a staple to me.

many women do loose their staples alot sooner...causes problems..in your case 8 weeks post op you should be healed enough for sutures/staples to be out.

do please phone physician if you have any doubts as to what it was.

good luck
