I had my sleeve done 11/9 and ended up getting my period 11/11 (almost a week early) Now I just went to the bathroom and have it again. Just wondering if the surgery through anyone elses cycle off. This happened to me when I had my lap band put in but never after any other surgery I've ever had.

Fat contains hormones. When you start to lose fat, the hormones are released to run rampant, causing wacky periods, mood swings, acne, and more. It'll calm as your weight loss stabalizes.

Abdominal surgery has been know to cause vaginal bleeding.

O agree with the asinal surgery comment..I had a hysterectomy and spotted a week or so after and again a for a few days from my sleeve on the Nov. 9th also...Your cycle may change as well as lighten..hope you feel better????

I had my period randomly, several times a month for the first two years post op. It's the only sucky part of all this.

Yep, thrown way off! I'm actually in my OBGYNs parking lot about to go in for yet another appt. I have endo so ... fun complications. But it definitely throws your cycle out of whack.

Thank you so much ladies. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't just me

I got mine right after surgery as well.
