Ironic.... I asked my doctor.....on mini pill...breastfeeding...... but will be on regular when I am done......OB said no issue and to just monitor and make sure surgeon aware of it.........

would not a consistent answer be awesome...... and I am way old (geriatric pregnancy.....loved that term last time)

I just wanted to throw up one more update for any reading in the future.

TMI Alert:

78 hours after stopping I started flowing heavy. That lasted 3 days then stopped. I would go a few days and then spot, go a few days and spot. Now I think I am having my "normal" period but it is heavy, full of clots, and taking forever. At the rate I am going I will still be flowing for surgery on Wed. That should be nice once I get the Heparin (blood thinner) shot. I have not had a period like this since I was like 15 or 16.

I would honestly have postponed my surgery a month and finished the pill pack. Emotionally it has been a hot poker in an already hot fire. Just kinda hard to deal with.

Feel free to message me if you have questions.

I am not on BC pills but if I were, after reading your story I would stop taking them about three months before surgery, at the END of a pack, and go live on a deserted island where I could not do any damage for two months!

What an awesome husband you have! He deserves a hundred gold stars. And you do too for being smart enough to choose him!

Hang in there, HORMONE MANIA shall pass and you will be so happy with your outcomes from surgery!
