Long Menstrual cycle

I am 4 weeks post op from GB. My period has lasted 12 days. Wth? I have a 1 month follow up in 3 days so I will ask the surgeon but anyone else have long periods ? It's not heavy but it's consistent & annoying. I'm on birth control already. Could it be wacky Hormone levels due to surgery ??
