Menstrual differences after being sleeved????



Recommended Posts

This is TMI

I've always been on the heavier side of my periods and they would last 7-10days

I'm experiencing my first menstrual and it's totally different. I'm barely cramping and I'm very light. I'm on day 4 and it's super light still.

What has been your experience?

Does it change?

Should I worry?

Is this normal?

I had my surgery on the 15th and was suppose to start on the 22nd but never started... Will I just be late or will I skip this month?

I was sleeved on March 1st. My cycle came right on time on the 15th, and I had the worst cramps that I've had in years and very heavy. It didn't last any longer than my normal 3 days, though.

I spotted for a month after surgery,it sucked. dr said its normal for cycles to be off due to anesthesia and hormones being everywhere

I got my period the day after surgery because the universe is a cold and callous place. It's been WAYYYYY heavier than it usually would be, and I have a feeling it's gonna go longer, too. NOT a welcome change!

I started 2 days before my surgery, it was weirdly light after surgery. My next one after surgery came 4 days early and was horrendously heavy. But I had little to no cramping.

I've always had nasty, irregular, heavy, and long periods. I started, I think, 2 or 3 days after surgery and it was non-stop heavy until just before Valentine's day. It started up again on the 15th and lasted until just yesterday, heavy and non-stop. I thought maybe I could get a break, but nope. I started again today!

I am seriously at my wits end. My husband and I don't have sex because of it and he's on HRT to become a woman, so the meds make his genitals not work. I'm not getting to enjoy the last months of his junk working, and now I am crying about it.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
