I got sleeved last thursday, 3/29. I started my period on saturday night. It's not typical that my 'time of the month' is ever on time, so I was suprised when it came because I wasn't expecting it for a week or two. I do suffer from PSOC (polycystic ovarian syndrome). So I have been in a lot of pain also with the pain of recovering from the surgery. My main concern is the ammount that I'm bleeding & the big clots that I'm having. I usually get lighter by the 3rd day & am done with it on the 4th. But I'm having no such luck. It's just as bad as when it started. Any suggestions why? or any need to call my doctor?

Thanks =)

I had mine heavy for about 2 weeks following surgery....its normal!

I got mine the morning of surgery....the docs were so kind and thoughtful' date=' they made no big deal just told me to leave my unders and bottoms on...they removed them after I was out, so not so humiliating for me...And allowed me a shower as soon as I woke from recovery to take care of things...[/quote']

I too was on my period during the procedure...they left my undies on me too! They just warned me they might be discolored by the yellow stuff they rub all over.

I've actually had two periods since my surgery. I had one as soon as I got home from the hospital and then one starting earlier this week. I asked my doctor about it and he said it was due to the anesthesia. I hope I get back to normal soon.

I got a surprise and very heavy period a week post op.

My husband and son have been my biggest irritant when it comes to food...they go buy cakes Cookies brownies and crap and come home and sit and make mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm sounds....feels almost deliberate sometimes... I'm getting good at ignoring bad behavior

That is beyond rude. Just picture them as grunting piggies and then laugh.

ooo Im excited by this! THIS IS WEIRD TO SAY...but ID LIKE TO HAVE MY PERIOD SOON...I have been missing it for a long long time. Before I never minded being young and all. But I kind of need it if i want to start a family one day.
