To Blessing re hardness @ incision

[Guest guest]

Hi Blessing and hi to Kukulaka & everyone,

I asked my doc about that at my post-op (my myomectomy was 12/8) and

he said it takes up to 6 months for the incision to soften, and by

that point I should barely be able to see or feel it (and my incision

is large, about 6 " ). He said it's not til 6 months that everything

really settles down, including your internal incisions if you had

uterine repair where your fibroids were removed. So what you are

describing is completely normal but if you have questions you should

definitely check with your doc.
