I had surgery June 29. I was supposed to start my period a week after surgery,instead I started the day after surgery,I haven't had one since. The thing is I feel like I'm about to start for the past week I've been cramping and just getting that feeling of doom. Yet nothing has happened. What the Hell? Any others go through something similar?

I was on blood thinners after surgery so I was well messed up. I would'nt be suprised if your cycle is abnormal for a few months. I would use some form of birthcontrol to make sure.

Mine was supposed to come days b4 the surgery and it came over a week after. I think between the liquid diets, surgery and all the weight loss my body just got confused. Hopefully this is my new normal but I guess I'll have to wait and see. Fingers crossed so I don't get it again in 2 weeks or it doesn't last for 3.

your cycle will be messed up for a bit since you had surgery, and it might be heavier since you had blood thinners. it is normal.

Same as above. I was in Agony. Every month after that, they got a little better.

I have an IUD and have not have my period in a year and half. I hope that as I lose weight I do not get it back. Kinda nice not having it. :)

My period was about three months late after my surgery, then was the heaviest, most uncomfortable cycle I have had. Then after that, I was back to normal, just like clockwork.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
