Thats exactly when I got my period too. Just tell them when you check in and they will give you ugly surgical panties with a huge pad. It won't stop anything.

Ditto to what LadyIvy said. I had mine & although it wasn't great to deal with, it was fine as far as the hospital was concerned. You just can't use tampons in the hospital or wear one to the hospital when you go in for surgery.

Mine had "ended" the day before surgery. But the first time I went to the bathroom after I was bleeding again. They said it's very common for women to get the period with surgery, sometimes even if they are mid-cycle.
