I tried looking for topics on this issue but couldnt find any that matched my issue... Anywho... I started my period today but I am only on week 3 of my birth control pills! GRR!! I am almost 1 month out of surgery. Did this happen to any of you ladies? I figured my birth control pill would still be able to regulate my cycle... guess not. Yes, I have not missed any pills and I take it at 6:30AM on the dot everyday without fail. My body hates me I suppose! :'(

I went off the pill for 2 months one before surgery and one after and it got out of whacked as well that i got it twice last month.

I am only 10 days post op, but I have the mirena and typically never have a period. I've not stopped bleeding since day 2. When I questioned about it, they said women store estrogen in our fat and the rapid weightloss is probably what's causing the period.

I agree with previous poster. I too am on the pill and got my period earlier than I should and for a longer time.

I have mirena to, I will be 7 weeks post op Tuesday and have finally stopped bleeding every other day since surgery, Doc said the same thing about fat and estrogen...said it would eventually quit...yay me!

Same with me and that was the same answer I got also. I was also warned that there is a higher chance of getting pregnant. EeeAaaKkk

Thanks for your responses everyone!!! Silly hormones

Thank you amwr6582 for posting this and everyone for their answers. I was just sleeved on 12/18 and got mine a week early and just different. I was about to post a question but decided to do a search first. This made me not worry so much! Does it get back to a more regular pattern after the first month?

My cycles have been wonky ever since surgery. My last cycle lasted two weeks. I am sure it gets better as time goes on
