Lighter Period?

So I am almost 9 months out and my period finally seems lighter

I have ALWAYS had heavy periods. And immediately post op they seemed even heavier which my doc attributed to hormones. But this month seems i dare say "normal". lol

It's probably heavy by most people's standard but it seems normal to me. Let's see that happens next month!

So weird but I was just thinking about this today, because AF came yesterday and it's been much lighter than it used to be. Is this something that typically happens due to the weight loss? What a nice surprise if so!! :)

Oh I was so glad to see this! I swear I lose half my body's blood every time I get my period! This will be a nice "side effect" :)

I sure hope I see that soon. Mine went from super light and super short to SUPER heavy yet still really short and the cramps are worse than ever before. Enough so that my dr wants to put me on birth control but I have a risk of blood clots anyways so I refuse :/ I had hoped once I hit goal it would chill but no such luck, of course this month I lost an insane amount of weight for 10 months out due to medical problems but before that the weight loss had really slowed down once I hit my original goal.
