a change of period?

I got my monthly on 6/3 it usually lasts about 4-5 days. I was sleeved on 6/24 and then on Friday 6/28 I got it again. So now I'm feeling crampy it's 7/28 so I guess I can expect to get it around this time. Is it the body adjustment? Did this happen to anybody else?

Yes the anesthesia can do whacky things to the menstrual cycle, plus your hormones and body are changing daily. I don't think this is anything to worry about, but if you are concerned you should ask your doctor.

Ok Thank you

The same thing happened to me had my period on the 1st, had surgery on the 23rd got my period again on the 26th

Same thing here. Surgery on 6/7 & cycle came 3 days later. It was 3 weeks early. At 3 mons post op, no cycle for 2 mons, then it returned again 2 times in the same month. Regular cycle started again @ 6 mons post op.

Oh let me tell you I had surgery March 18th 2013 and I was due for my period and it did not come, so by May 18th I had light spotting and then nothing until July 25th. I was soaking through super plus tampons every 1-2 hours I even had to add an overnight pad. This went on for two whole days and now my flow is back to normal. I did some research and apparently when you don't shed the lining it overgrows and builds up and it has to come out some time. I have even read on here where some women have there period continuously for 3 or more weeks after surgery.

Ugh, glad I wasn't the recipient of the gift of a 3 week period! That really would have put me over the edge and I would have done something I regret! Glad to hear it all normalized in a couple of months.

I haven't had a period for a long time so I hope by me losing the weight it can come back how much do I have to lose to see it angina do any body know

I was sleeved on 6/24 and started spotting during my stay at the hospital. I haven't had a cycle or cramps yet either but mine were not regular before. I had to take Lo Loestren to have them and due to the side effects of blood clots I stopped taking them 4 weeks before surgery and haven't started them back yet. I don't miss my cycle that bad lol..I kinda think our bodies are just off kilter.

I don't know mine were always normal before the surgery.
