Hello ladies. I actually was on my period the day of my surgery but I had started to get sporadic periods prior to it - maybe every 2 or 3 months I would get my period. I am almost 49.

I have not had a period since surgery which was 3 months 5 days ago whooooohooooo! Listen, I am not complaining. I am looking forward to menopause actually. But I just wondered if anyone in my age range experienced your period stopping after you had VSG. And if it stopped did it stop only for a certain period of time and then come back? Or did it go away and never come back ? The latter is what I am hoping for lol

Hi I’m 47 years old. Had my period in June and was sleeved on July (10th)-no period in July or august. We will see if I get it this month (September). There are several posts on these boards about how such major surgery affects your cycle. I’d welcome never having my period again.

I was sleeved on 7/31 and I am 48. I had barely a 1 day period on 8/30 which was a few days late but usually I go for more than 1 day! We'll see what happens next month.

Thanks ladies. I'm also hoping it never comes back!
