This was a question I wanted to ask as well. I am pre-op and have PCOS. Never had a normal period sometimes no period then at times a month long period.I have had some Hair loss, wondering if hair will grow back after surgery.

I was sleeved 1/15/13 and I had my first period on my own last sunday and it lasted 5 days, like a "normal" one! I know it sounds strange but I'm hoping to get one every month. I would love to have a baby. If you look under special interests there is a PCOS support group too. There are lots of women on there with great success stories concerning PCOS! :)

I was also sleeved on 1/15/13 and am hoping for a normal period. At this point I'm thinking its back to the same old routine of provera to regulate. I started while I was still in the hospital after surgery. This was not fun times but in the end it will all be worth it.

I'm on the mini pill so I don't usually get mine every month but it's been forever this time!!

Had a really light period after nothing since before surgery which was in October!!

I went 9 months without having my period pre-op. Only had hair loss when I was first diagnosed at 15. Had surgery 12/17/12. Then a two days after surgery I got my period very lightly for a few days. It's been regular ever since then (always off by a two days or so). First 2 times were really heavy. Then this month it was only heavy the first 2 days and light the rest!

Part of the reason I got this surgery was to help my PCOS. However, even 10 weeks post op I'm noticing my hair is coming out a little more.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
