i think you should ask your docter for ferter instructions. he will no wat to tell you.
it will be embarassing but it is better than being blooding for two days.
srrrry i could not help you directly.

Ask your nurse or doctor what the best course of action is. They'll probably recommend you wearing a pad during surgery.
Even with a lot of sleeping and trying to recover, most patients are encouraged to get up and walk to the bathroom. If this happens, you can regularly change your pad - a tampon might accidentally be left in too long if you are soundly asleep for more than 8 hours.
If you are genuinely confined to bed, you should still be able to change your pad with a little of manuvering. Make sure to be upfront with your nurse if you need help - it might be embarassing, but less embarassing than lying in a pool of your own blood!
Best of luck with the surgery AND the period!

tell one of the nurses or one of the doctors, they deal with this all the time so dont worry they'll take care of it.

best thing to do is tell the nurse or doctor about and they should already have it covered. good luck with the surgey and i hope everything goes well.

Talk to the doctor or nurse and see what they can do about it. They'll probably give you a pad or medication.
Good luck with your surgery. It sounds pretty serious.

Let your mom know. Have her tell a nurse about it ( or you can). They will keep you taken care of. Don't worry about it.
Wishing you a speedy recovery! :)

Hospitals make special heavy-duty pads that last for a really long time. I've worn them i should know. I went into surgery on the second day of mine, and just ask for some of those and you'll be set. and don't be embarassed to ask for them...they're hospitals...they deal with much worse. Good luck and i hope the surgery goes well.

Don't worry about it. Just tell your mom and the doctors should have something planned to do about it.

i would recomend getting a very heavy duty pad to wear or maybe an adult diaper! if you tell the doctor i bet they have some kind of med. they can give you to either tep. ligthen your period or stop it. there is a chance because of the stress of your sergery the period will stop or slow down anyways
