What Causes Blood Clots After Hysteroscopic Surgery?

I had a polyp removed 10 days ago with hysteroscopic. I am a swimming teacher . My gyno said I didn t need to miss work and could use a tampon. Did this 6 days after surgery and out came a big clot and it increased bleeding for a day. Rang gyno and he said to ignore it and put in another tampon. I did what he said two days later And this time clot double the size and I am now getting more bleeding than ever before. It s now 10 days post op.i don t want to use tampons whatever he says but am worried I could now have an infection. Can t ring him as it s now weekend.

Infectious Diseases Specialist 's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic.
I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that tampoon use is necessary in your condition. It will give pressure to the bleeding vessels and bleeding will be stopped. There is a chance of infection in you also. I advice a swab taken from the clotted blood and do Grams staining and culture sensitivity from it. If the organism is pathogenic you should start treatment according to the report and you will be improved soon.
I will be happy to answer all your future concern.
Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank

Wish you a best health at health care magic.
