monthly cycles....



Recommended Posts

Do you have the copper or the Merina (sp)? I have the copper and I asked today and she said it was the perfect Birthcontrol for this surgery. I had my yearly exam this morning fyi. I'm not sure about the one using hormones. You dont have to take it out but you might ask about using a back up method.

I am on birth control pills and by cycles have been either right on time or they have been crazy here there and every where depending on how much I lose.

Has anyone's cycle lasted an abnormal amount of time? Mine has been going since 2 days after surgery. Yep. Almost a month. I haven't stopped taking my BC and I'm not really sure when/if I should see my doctor. I want to minimize visits since I don't have insurance so if this is a somewhat normal occurrence then I'll just wait it out.

I got my period 2 days after surgery and it was about 9 days early! Of course my surgeon chalked it up to the anethesia and the huge shock to my system by going under the knife. I was pretty regular before without any hormones (our family is "officially" complete) so I hope it doesn't take too long to go back to normal.

So glad to have found this post. Earlier today I felt my usual "signs" of getting my period (my right leg cramps - same area, always the day of getting my period) and I thought that was unusual, but just noticed that I got my period. Say what? I'm 14 days early and feeling ripped off!!!

EXACTLY!!! LOL. Not to mention that I had planned my surgery to be in the middle of my cycle specifically so I wouldn't have to deal with it while also recovering. :rolleyes: I guess sometimes the best laid plans.... :lol:

I'm glad I found this post. I am 7 days post op, and yesterday when I was in the bathroom, I wiped and there was a small amount of blood, very small, like the last day of one's period. I didn't bleed again at all yet. I wonder if that's happened to anyone else.

Update: I guess I have a light period. I have no other symptoms. No fever. No exceptional pain. No other stuff. Just light bleeding from there. This shocks me because I haven't had a period in three years since I went on Depo Provera. Oh well.

well I have been on my period pretty consistantly since my surgery in May. This is the first week I have gone this long withougt even spotting. yeah!! My obgyn said that with the rapid weight loss, my body was producing enough progesterin (sp?) to slough off the lining. However was producing testosterone and estrogen at the rate I was pre-op, so my hormones have been all out of whack. I actually have the Murana, and he also had me start the nuva ring-yes two internal bc!! I'm in my 3rd month of both, and starting to feel almost normal again! good luck ladies, would gladly trade ya!!! :thumbup1:

I hear ya. I had my op in February and this is my first month clear. Had about a couple of days a month clear but constant bleeding from the off. Dr changed my bc pill to combined instead of progesterone only and that seems to have done the trick. Forget extra precautions..my hubby not allowed near lol:D

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
