female only Advice, Long Tom. Maybe Tmi

I've now had my period for 10 days. It is kind of light, but still I'm passing clots. I'm kind of getting a little worried. I usually go for 4-5 days. Also even the beginning of this period was weird, usually I start cramping a number of days prior, and get cramps on the day I start. This time. No cramps prior and none on the day of. I don't completely keep track, but it just showed up, and thinking back, it was on time. But I'm concerned I'm still bleeding. I was going to give it a couple more days before I call my gyno. But I was wondering if anyone had any advice. With all my weight loss so far, my period has always been consistent, so I'm unsure what changed, and I haven't lost a lot of weight recently. I did have a big drop last week (3.8lb), but over the last 5 months or so, I've only lost 15lb.

Any advice is welcomed. TIA

If it doesn't stop, go to your doctor (regular, not band doctor). Doesn't seem like it would be weight loss related....take care of yourself.

I didn't think for a second it was band related. Just curious if anyone else had had a similar issue.

I've had longer ones as well. It's hormone related. There's a good string on here somewhere I found where numerous people have experienced the same. It comes down to your weightless and hormone level changes

Thankfully day 10 was the last day and it stopped. Hopefully it won't happen again. Thanks
