Flatulence after hysterectomy is usually a normal phenomenon. If the surgery is performed under laparoscopy, carbon dioxide gas needs to be injected into the abdominal cavity during the surgery to create a good visual space for the surgery, and these gases will be absorbed by themselves after the surgery. In addition, anesthesia affects the peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract, which may also cause flatulence, which is usually relieved after the anesthesia is metabolized.
