I just posted on a similar thread! Worst monthly experience in a long time!

Yep. Worst of my life. Hideous. Now the next two are late. Grrr

Yes...they were giving me an anticoagulant post surgery to avoid clots. Got it the hospital. Because of weight loss I am off pain meds for knee...ibuprofen. my period is now the lightest it has ever been.

Mine started the day I got home from the hospital. It has been the worst one I have had in years with horrible cramps. It's no fun, especially since I was already in pain.

I schedule my surgery specifically a week after I knew I would have my cycle, but then two days after I had the surgery I got it again. The pain I felt was from the cramps not the surgery, it made me bloat and retain water. I'm not worried, but a little frustrated as I gained weight bc of this. I now I'll be fine, but would like to see some sort or instant result.

Got mine 4 days after surgery and like the others it was horrible and dragged on and on. Mine never lasted longer than 2 to 3 days before. This one lasted almost 8 days. Ugh, blood thinners suck!

Got mine today and I am 3 months post op and been weak and dizzy today. Didnt experience this with the other months!!
