Tratamiento del cuello uterino por criocirugía - Recovery

Nombres alternativos

Cirugía de cuello uterino; criocirugía en la mujer

Expectativas después de la cirugía:

La cirugía generalmente es efectiva. El médico debe repetir una citología vaginal o biopsia en una visita de control para constatar que la operación destruyó efectivamente el tejido anormal.

Convalecencia:

Usted puede reanudar casi todas las actividades normales inmediatamente después de la cirugía y es posible que necesite evitar las relaciones sexuales, al igual que el uso de tampones, durante varias semanas. Por 2 a 3 semanas después de la cirugía, tendrá mucho flujo acuoso ocasionado por la muda (desprendimiento) del tejido cervical muerto.

Nunca debe hacerse lavados vaginales, sea que tenga esta afección o no, debido a que pueden causar infecciones severas en el útero y las trompas de Falopio.

Usted podría sentirse mareada inmediatamente después del procedimiento. Si esto sucede, acuéstese en la mesa de exploración para no desmayarse. Esta sensación debe desaparecer en unos pocos minutos.
