Hello!
Thanks for your query.
If heavy bleeding is from fibroids she needs to do another operation ,depending on the state of the uterus ,age ,anemia and other factors , doctor can decide to do:
hysterectomia
myomectomia
Unpleasant odor may be from any vaginal infection.
She should consult with her surgeon and decide what to do.
Take care of her
