Brief Answer:
likely post fibroidectomy
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to hcm,
thERE IS ALL POSSIBILITY THAT YOU MAY EXPERIENCE irregular bleeding and shedding of endometrium from raw areas of fibroidectomy. This shall subside in weeks and can be controlled by use of anti-fibrinolytics like tranexamic acid 500mg thrice a day for 3-4 days.
If the bleeding lasts for 3-4 days and light , with reduction of flow in next 2 days, then it can be your early menses as well.
So you may at present wait and watch and if its heavy then you may opt for anti-fibrolytics available on prescription.
