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

If considering depo...please research! I had blood clot to lung following surgery..docs strongly in agreement it is directly related to depo use. Would never have thought that could happen. Can never take it again!! Just be careful

Mine started the day after surgery. And it hasn't been right since. It is much heavier and come about every 2 weeks and last for 8 days. It is completely irregular. I tried depo before the surgery and it made me gain a lot of work. After the surgery, my doctor tried the Nuva ring and I could feel it all the time and the thought of it was kinda gross. I have heard way to many horror stories about the IUD, so I'm just still searching for answers.

Just curious about the depo because my cousin gained a lot of weight on that...and Im wanting to get an IUD, but after i had my 2nd son three yrs ago via csection, i tried 3 times to get an IUD and they couldn't get it in..something about my uterus or something being tilted, i dont know. But they got it in once and said theres a high chance of it coming out, so she just took it out. I think trying to get an IUD was the worst pain ive ever felt lol...considering ive never went into labor with either of my kids.

I have a tilted uterus so I never had nexplanon... Did the depo shot and so did my friend, she gained 39 lbs and no matter what she did couldn't take the weight off until she stopped getting the shot and a year later... My periods have been heavy and unpredictable ... Considering what we go through to lose weight, I wouldn't use anything that may help with gaining weight

The wonderful world of menstruation reared its ugly face to me this past Saturday and has been relentless! Before surgery (9-23-13) I was lucky to have one every few months and with a light to medium flow! Not to be gross, but I think it would be easier to attach a bag somehow or just sit on the toilet :/ I don't sleep well and that makes me a bit crabby! I certainly don't feel like exercising, but feel better after I do as far as cramps are concerned. Good thing I have never had crazy cravings at this time of the month because I am sure they don't come in liquid or puree form LOL! I have wanted salt though :(

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
