I'm only 3 weeks post-op, but this week I started my menstrual cycle and to be blunt, I'm bleeding like a stuck hog!! My periods have been very light since I had an ablasion done several years ago. I don't understand why I'm doing this. I go back to dr. Dec. 31, but I'm just wanting to know if anyone else has had this problem????

I had my surgery the 17 if this month and ha a cycle. And surprisingly Ive started again today full blown... So yea the surgery messes with our cycles. Let me know what your doct says

Girl I feel ya... Mine has been horrible since surgery. Having ablation jan 24th to try and help!!!

Also it makes your iron levels really low... Hormones being released by the fat???

I had an ablation several years ago and only spotted for all these years. But gosh!!! it's horrible....this is the first cycle since my surgery.

Mine are also heavier now and last longer--used to be done in 3/4 days--now full week

I feel u just had my first since surgery and its amazing how we dont die with the amount of blood we lose i felt like i was peeing myself yuck!

Ugh yes! It's nasty! Grrr damn hormones

I got my period a week after sx anf had it for two weeks. I have pcos and am insulin resistant. For the first time in 9 yrs i am actually regular but i am bleeding much more. I just had my 4 month labs done and my insulin is normal and my body is back to normal. Guess its a good thing

I am 4 months out 1week after surgery I had the heaviest cycle ever and cramps to die for. And that was it. Just saw my GYN last week and my surgeon had full labs only to find out I am experiencing menopause. It took RNY for my cycle to stop. Really....

Mine have been much lighter...combination of perimenapause and no ibuprofen.

I am dying. I have had mine heavy since my surgery oct 30th. I had been to my GYN and they gave me birth control to take on top of my birth-control I already have in my arm. It is not helping. This reAlly sucks because I'm feeling amazing about my self and honestly getting sexual frustrated!! I don't know what to do anymore! Ugh!!

The surgery/weight loss actually helped mine. I have PCOS. In the past I have gone as long as 1 1/2 years without a period. And it would be very heavy and last for about a week. Since the sx, it has regulated like clock work and it only lasts 4-5 days with minimal cramping.
