General & Family Physician,  's  Response
After the procedure, it is common for women to experience some bleeding. However, abnormal bleeding may indicate that a complication has occurred.
Abnormal Bleeding:
While minor bleeding or spotting is normal, heavy bleeding is often an indication that something has gone wrong. Women who experience a gush of blood or feel that they need to change a feminine pad every hour or two, should contact their physicians or go to the hospital immediately, according to the American Pregnancy Association.

Causes:
Heavy bleeding may occur do to a perforation of the uterus during surgery. The metal instruments can puncture the uterus or other internal organs. In some cases, bleeding occurs after due to hemorrhage or infection.
