Hi,

I had my monthly visit May 20 2012 and stopped on the 25th. Had my sleeve on the 31st now I am bleeding again. Is that normal? I am not due till 3 more weeks.

I was told that yes it is normal. You store excess Estrogen in your fat cells and as you lose weight you release the excess hormones, so it can trigger a cycle. As you lose weight you can also become more fertile.

When I had hernia surgery this happened to me. The nurses said that surgery's a traumatic event for your body and sometimes it throws off your menstrual cycle.

Any surgery can throw off your cycle, because it is trauma to the body. When I broke my leg a couple years ago, and subsequently had surgery my cycle was crazy for months.
