Umm, I might take a pregnancy test if there are chances you could be pregnant?

I am also very regular and I had surgery on the 16th and had my regular cycle start on the 18th. There wasn't anything abnormal about mine, but everyone's body is different :-)

Weight loss causes lots of screwy cycles. I would test, but it is most likely your body adjusting

This is what I was told when mine got super heavy & longer. Far cells contain estrogen. When you burn far, the estrogen is bring released into your body. Fluctuating hormones can cause all kinds of problems. I ended up having a hysterectomy, but that was only after other treatments didn't work. You may want to take a pregnancy test to confirm you are not prego just to be safe. I wouldn't stress over it too much since you are only a couple weeks post op. Good Luck with everything!

I'm 5 months out from surgery and had some very odd cycles. Keeping up the Iron supplements have been key for me.

Might not be the band, but the medications from surgery................

Could be anything from the process. I'm religiously on schedule with my cycle and mine started 2 days early. The day before surgery :-( I think it was due to diet & rapid weight loss. (I lost 13 lbs in pre op diet)

I have taken 4 pregnancy tests and all came back negative. that's when i started looking into things and i found this app. i wasn't sure what was going on but found other people had altered cycles so i am not as worried now.. Thank you for the help!! :-) i am about to get my first fill so really wanted to make sure i was't pregnant first or just from the surgery messing things up.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
