Problems w/ Menstrual Cycle Since Surgery?

[patsy1965 2]

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 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.
