Anyone experience Post-op cycle changes



Recommended Posts

So my cycles are pretty heavy which causes an Iron-deficiency for me. So I’m already going to be on my cycle when I go in for surgery. “SUCKS *SS” I was told by my surgeon that I may get my cycle again. Which means twice in one month. Oh HELL NO! Was anyone else told this?? Or if you had surgery did this happen to you. I would like to know how common it is. 😭☹️😤

This happened to me, sort of. Because of my birth control, I normally skip/don’t have a period. After surgery I got an untimely period.

And I'm sure out you're on blood-thinning,shots it has to be much worse. Eventually everything should smooth out.

Thank you @greensmoothie. I’m just hoping if it comes twice they aren’t both heavy. It makes me so weak

I was also on my period during surgery. Wasn’t bad because the pain meds help lol.

My periods have gotten worse in terms of heavier flow and more weird pain. My pain now is more back pain versus low abdomen pain. I hope it adjusts and gets back to the old routine but I am seeing my gyno next week to switch birth control because the pill may not be fully absorbed. I want to stay on it but I will see what the doc says.

Heavier!!😲 I pray that won’t be the case for me. Lord I can’t handle them being any heavier. Thank you @Bryn910 hopefully you have good luck with getting it back to normal.

      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! 😞
