So I'm day 2 of my pre op and I got my period 3 days before sirgery...I tried to clean up and all bim doing iis dropping blood like crazy and blood clots..should I be worried

Nope. I have an IUD so I won't have a period because I am anemic and used to pass out from heavy bleeding. I started my preop about a month before surgery and I am almost three weeks post op now.

I have been on the rag on and off for almost six weeks now. It's never ending. The doc, np and my gyno all say this is normal and will level off. Good news? Uhmmm... Yeah, I got nothin. Periods suck.

Ask your GYN about ablation procedure. Fixed my heavy periods. I don't have them anymore. Should hit the big M before they come back. As long as you are done birthin babies and you have heavy periods, your doc will probalby do it.

Best thing I did in my 40's.

Sleeve is best thing I have done thus far in my 50's!

No way! That hurts, doesn't it? My mirena solved all my problems till this. I am not having any more as they could cause my brain tuhma to grow back, but ain't no one stripping out my innards any more than they've been stripped so far. Too chicken, here!

Omg I'm going to ask about this!!

Ok so I am on mirana too and some people have no periods with it but lucky me I still do but they are short and light.... However my first after surgery was very heavy and longer and even got cramps. Sounds like surgery can change our periods? My cousin got sleeved 4 months ago and hers are all crazy now with blood clots so weird and not sure what causes it.

Don't worry about your period before, during, or after surgery. Docs don't care and neither do the staff. They've all been there done that.. No biggy.. So relax

Just the extreme weight loss changes it...I am on mirena too and didn't get my period for years until last week (my first week post op) it was because of my quick weightloss

Totallyyyyyyy off topic, but those of you with more a or any other iud, do you like it? I'm on nuvaring and loveeeee it, but I'm looking for a more permanent option. I know I'm done having kids, but too young to tie my tubes.

I love mirena. .. no side effects really for me because the hormones are centralized. I haven't had kids yet so its a good choice regardless of what stage of life your in.

Ok, totally a tmi question, so you don't have to answer lol, but does your significant other feel it?

It is so easy. The whole procedure takes less than 5 minutes. They basically burn via several ways your uterine lining. You will have cramps that night. They will give you meds for it and the next day you will feel fine.

I was having periods that lasted 8-9 days. Have a week or so off and then start over again.

It has made such a positive impact in my life. Not only are the cramps mostly gone, they used to double me over. Most of the PMS symptoms are gone too.

Hi, I had Mirena in for a couple of years but due to fibroids that caused extremely heavy bleeding and clotting, I expelled it. (Not a pleasant experience, horrible cramping.). Then my doc put in Essure. It's these little coils that go in your tubes. Then after that I had a uterine ablation. It's been two years since that procedure, I spot for a day or two monthly. It's awesome!

By the way, I'm just starting this sleeve journey. I'm going through all the preop items/appointments. Have been lurking and learning loads from all of you for the last month or so.

Only if his dink it about 16 inches. His isn't.
