Question for the woman!

Is anyone experience a delay and or change in their period after surgery and if so how long did it take for your period to return to normal?

I had my first post op period about two and a half weeks after. And have been regular ever since!

I am on a pill that stops my periods (due to horrid PCOS). I have been sleeved for 4 months. In this time and despite this pill, I have had two periods, both lasting over 17 days (oh yes, it was a joy) :blink: ... I have now, just started again... It is getting more than a bit annoying. Particularly as I'm not getting any money back for buying in bulk from lil-lets and the like! Grrrrrr! :angry:

Mine is on time as usual. Didn't miss a beat.

Mine is crazy

I was always regulated very well by the pill (which I stopped right before surgery). It's completely irregular / ADD/ BiPolar/ it has no idea what it's doing now. A day, 3 days, 15 days, missed, spotting. It's insane. Oh well, I'll just deal for now.

But it didn't go crazy until about month 4 or 5.

I was suppose to get my period dec 12th two days after surgery and I haven't gotten it yet!!! Not to mention I am extremely nauseous can't eat drink much and feeling fatigued!!! Today my doctor actually took a blood test for pregnancy!!! Oh no lol I am 5 weeks out lost 58 pounds that a good thing I guess

Funny mine started a week before surgery and last a week, which drove me crazy.

I had my normal period first of January then again 2 days before surgery (jan 27th) thank God it was done before surgery! Won't know anything more until next month.
