I have a TMI question for any ladies that have already been sleeved. I am scheduled for this Tuesday morning but I started aunt flo today, please tell me that won't postpone my surgery!!

call first thing tomorrow to be sure but I was never asked about being on my period and i think they would have if it were an issue. good luck!

Not a problem at all. Not yet sleeved yet but I am a nurse in a pre op holding area and this will not stop your surgery at all.

Thank you so much, I was really hoping it would not be a problem. Think it may just be nerves, lol

You'll be fine. I started my period the morning of my surgery and the pre-op nurse just told me I couldn't use a tampon and she gave me these super sexy disposable panties and a huge pad. Lol! Good luck!

My aunt flo was visiting during my surgery. They made me take my pad off. When I woke up from surgery, I had a thick pad stuck between my legs. It was gross...

MissMistyC That was HILARIOUS!!!! (I know this was a question for the ladies but I'm nosy LOL)

How long before you can use a tampon again? I hate having to use pads, and I too will be starting right around surgery time.

If you can insert it you can use it.

Thanks. Good to know! This Thursday is my surgery day!!!!!

Good luck.

Thanks!
