For those of you with very irregular periods or pcos, how long after losing weight did you start getting a period every month. And have any of you not started to get regular.

I have PCOS and was actually wondering this same question!! I even talked to my mom about it today! ITS HELL. Im pre OP and just this week EVEN ON BIRTH CONTROL I was almost a week late ( about gave me a heart attack) I just dont know when its gonna end uhg! I was curious too if it would even itself out or if i should stop taking my pills and get an IUD put in so I wont gain weight with the pills even more after surgery. Hope you find your answer! Im curious too!

I have endometriosis and had awful periods. Irregular and cramps that would leave me in the bed. I switched to an estrogen free pill, micronor, and haven't had a period in 135 days. I'm in heaven! It's 98% effective where most pills are 99%, but we're supposed to use a barrier method anyway for the first 18-24 months post so I went for it. Best decision I've made :)

I had horrible periods also and birth control didn't help any. I finally had endometrial ablation done and I couldn't be happier. Of course I plan on not having any more children. Pretty much they burn the lining of your uterus. It sounds painful but it's not. No more periods for me!!

I had an oblation also. Best thing I've ever done. I had super heavy periods with big clots and terrible cramps. Now my period is really light. I don't need more than a liner or thin pad. Whoo Hoo!

I have pcos and hadn't had a period in almost 2 years. I spotted the day after my surgery. 4/16 Nothing major. Three days ago, it started with a vengeance. It's like the Texas chainsaw massacre is going on in there. Tmi I know. Worst period I've had in my life and its not let up any yet. Surgeon said estrogen would slam me after I lost so much and restart them. I'm down 60 pounds and he was right. I didn't miss this at all bit glad my body is trying to get back to normal.

I am close to 7 months post op and I also had not had a regular period in 2 years...well the first couple periods I got after surgery were awful...like really bad...I was scared but my doctor told me it was common and it didn't help I had blood thinners in my system from my surgery
