I was wondering if anyone had an irregular menstrual cycle post-op. I had a cycle 4 days pre-op and 2 days post-op, and then again 12 days post-op that is still ongoing?!?! Anyone experience anything weird?

My cycle was off post-op. It's regulating out over the last couple of months. For November and December, it was super light, and I just started my January cycle, and BAM, I'm so over this already, it's heavy, I'm crampy, and exhausted.

Sorry for the TMI. My surgeon said it was perfectly normal for my cycle to be off.

yes I experienced that! I was just finished with my menses before surgery then after surgery I was menstruating again then there was spotting for almost one month. after one month and half, it is regular again, so I guess this is normal some hormonal imbalance. now at two months out, everything is perfect so don't worry.

I was the oppisite-

Because of my obisity.. I didn't have a "regular" period........ sometimes I would go 6 months without one........ I thought I was in menopause.

Then 3-4 months after surgery.. had my period and it has been like clockwork ever since!

Doc said it was my body gettting bck to "normal" and this was good....... and here I was thining I was done with it!!!:001_smile:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
