??? abt. surgery for PCOS with additional transverse vaginal septum tooFrom: J. (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sat, 10 Aug 2002 14:32:47 -0500 (CDT)
My 16 year old has been set up for surgery next month to have a transverse vaginal septum removed and to address a 3"x3.5" mass on one of her ovaries. She had quick onset of hirsuitism, obesity, dark pigmentation of skin in neck area. The kicker is that usually a woman would have no history of periods for this diagnosis. However, in her case she did have them and then they stopped. Does anyone out there have any help to provide as to what recovery is like from this kind of surgery and what she/we should expect, in terms of recovery time, pain, how to comfort her, etc. We realize that the septum could be any thickness and that will determine the degree of surgery she ends up actually having. But, as her caretaker, I'd like to know what to expect. I also care for my demented/arthritic 92 year old mother in our home, so I will need to be organized and empathetic. Thanks in advance.
