How much bleeding is normal after laparoscopy -- complicated by period

[LindaF]

I had spotting/light bleeding after my 28th June laparoscopy which then turned into my period which was due July 1st. It really came in on 3rd. July and I am bleeding still. I only go through about 2-3 pads/day, never have to change at night so it's not particulary heavy, about normal for my period. It just seems long due to the surgery. At what point do I become concerned?

I had a lap done for endometriosis. I spotted after for a few days. Doc said this was normal due to everything she just did. I had it done between cycles. Iam now 12 days late. Not sure if this is normal. I know the surgery will have some effect but its been 40 days inbetween periods. Any awnsers anyone????

Yes this is normal and will continue for a few days until your next regular cycle starts. You would be asked to take a liquid diet for atleast 3 days with 3 days total rest and not to lift heavy weights and no travelling long distances.

you're absolutely right. The doctors should tell us, what to expect. Guess they don't always have the time for it.
