I wonder if I can get some advice. I'm 4 and a half months out of surgery and this month I am 17 days late getting my period. I have done pregnancy tests all negative and wonder if anyone else has experienced this? Is it normal? Any advice would be great?

Yes youre period can get wake because you are on such restricted calories. I am six weeks out and i haven't had a period yet... I know it s because my body is in shock and on extremely low calories and having Endometriosis doesnt help. but it IS normal. Think about how anorexics lose their periods. its because they calories are so low. Same thing here.

Thank you so much for your reply. Will have to wait a bit longer. Am guessing it will return to normal at some point. Wish you lots of luck with your journey.

Lucky you. Im 13 days post op and I got my period the night before surgery (boy was that horrific the day of) and it hasn’t let up yet. I have an iud and my period NEVER lasts longer than two days. I’m nearing the end of the 5 year limit for my iud (December) so that could be playing a role in this as well, beside the fact that my body went through a trauma.
