Womens problems..?

Hi all...... bit of a sensitive question.

I am on the contraceptive pill (mini pill - progesterone only). The pill I am on totally stops my periods and I haven't had one for months. (I'm deffo not pregnant and this is a known side affect of this pill).

I had my band fitted on Saturday 12th July and today I seem to be having some bleeding.. do you think this is just cuz I am dehydrated and the trauma of the surgery along with blood thinning drugs or should I be very worried?

I know i am dehydrated by the colour of my urine and my low temperature... I really am trying to drink more today!

:tongue_smilie:

I don't know about the bleeding - definitely check in with your doctor on that one. But crushed ice is really helping me to stay hydrated. This way you're not really "drinking" water but the ice gets the chewing I am craving and liquids in me. Try it.
