Did your Menstral Change after Surgery?

I was wondering if you had any changes in your cycle after surgery? Did it get shorter? Was the flow heavier? I'm just curious to know. Men pardon my post but I had to ask.

In my case, it started and did not stop. I have been PMSing for two months now. Not heavy, not painful, just overly annoying.

Surgery hormones + the Nexplanon = never ending flow. Aggravating at this point. Hopefully, my OB has some good news for me soon.

Mine is still the same..It came when it was supposed to after surgery. I can say the first two days are a little heavier than they used to be, but then again Ive always had light periods..

I've been on my period for 18 days! Not painful, only using a lite tampon x 3 per day but many it's just annoying and I want it to quit!! I see GYN on Thursday. Hopefully she will have some insight.

Mine came on time but it is extremely heavy. Shockingly heavy, actually. I'm going to wait a couple more days and see if it starts to ease up (I'm only 3 days in), but if it I still the same I will see a doctor.

I haven't had a period before surgery but after I had it for 9 days so I will see if I get one next mo or not I am also on the depo but I am also a mo out time for me will tell

The depo shot doesnt make you gain weight at all??

During my surgery I had my period...after surgery my periods have been a little off...like I would get it, then it would stop then it would come again....with-in weeks time...so I am way off....

I remember using depo when I was younger and it made my hormones crazy and I had my period for 2 months straight...never again...lol

This. I have it for a day or two, the next week I may spot for a few hours. I'm all over the place post op. Pre op it came like clockwork.

Wow, I've been wanting to ask everyone the same thing... I called my dr yesterday because my menstrual was a lot heavier than normal when it started. I stayed on for 2 weeks and stopped. Then I started spotting again yesterday! Annoying, but the dr said this is common in women after gastric! Good to know I'm

Not alone!!
