    I hadn't had a period in about 4 months. I had surgery and I got it last week. Total bummer! It could be a coincidence and nothing to do with the surgery, but I haven't had a period like this in quite a while.

    Heavier, painful and closer together. Also, I'm a complete monster to be around. It wasn't like this before for me.

    As your body loses the weight your fat cells release hormones and I would bet money that is why you are a complete monster to be around and your periods are heavier.
