Ladies

Ladies, I stopped getting my period after my surgery. I'm 5 months post op and 27 years old. Anyone have this same problem due to rapid weight loss? If so, how long did it take you to get your period again?

not with this surgery because I was already in menopause...but when I had a previous surgery while I was still having periods, my period did stop for a few months; I just figured it was the stress and/or trauma of having the surgery...I know this is different...but you are only 27 so I bet your period does return soon...I would give it another month or two and then see your ob/gyn if you still haven't had a period

I've seen people say they lost their periods and I've seen people with super, awful periods afterwards. I had an ablation 2 years ago so I don't have active periods anymore but I can tell my hormones are worse at the moment. I still get to go through the same PMS roller coaster as everyone else :D

bummer, Christine :wacko:

Definitely go see the doctor about this.....

Just the opposite.... I have always had very irregular periods and would usually need to take hormones to start... But after I came home from the hospital I started and started again 2 weeks later... No fun
