Question For The Girls

Wasn't really sure where to post this question.. But after having lap band surgery... Was your cycle regular or did you skip a month? Maybe tmi but just curious .. My af is expected a few days after surgery .. Just wondering if I'm going to have to deal with that along with recovery lol

Great question but I am so past that concern, hope the younger group can help you LOL

I was hoping to have my monthly visitor since I hadn't had one in a while. I've been banded 7 months still nothing. It's been about 2 yrs now :-/

I'm due in a few days (however I'm on the pill too) so I will let you know! My dr said it shouldn't change, but who knows!!!

I've had a little breakthrough light bleeding not much I'm so glad to see that it may just be from the blood thinners I had last week prior to surgery. It's happened about twice since surgery and I'm not do for a cycle for a couple of weeks. Good to know.

nope, mine was right on time....i guess all of use all different.

Surgery can do weird things to a body. I had surgery on the 10 and have had af twice in 2 weeks after that. That was after I just had it a week before surgery.

I had an endometrial ablation in June. I was hoping to be thin and period free! :D I got mine 2 days after surgery...a week early!

I got mine the day before surgery.. Nice huh. But then that was the last one I had.....my obgyn thinks my weight loss maybe somehow triggered my body into menopause ....Sounds weird I know but everything checks out... And I am through menopause according to my blood levels.... and I never ever realized it...I guess there was too much going on in my body....but I sure do not miss it!

My cycle has become regular. I was never on time and i never worried about become pregnant. Now after losing 120 lbs and 40 years old, i have cramps, emotional and all the chocalate cravings! And the first time i have ever been afraid of becoming pregnant! Lol!

Sorry didnt mean to post that twice!

Mine came as it was expected and was not brought on early by surgery. For some, it seems to come the same day and others stays the same.

Mine was right on time...to the hour! Strangely....first time in over 3 years....no cramps!!!! I will take that!!!
