I was sleeved on 9/12/11 and did not get my period from april 2011 untl last month (10/25 to be exact) before surgery, i went to the dr and all my hormones were normal.. I started back on the pill about 5 weeks ago...now, not even two weeks since my last period i am spotting again, is this normal? I asked the dr if my period stopped due to my weight and she said maybe but not likely..so i am wondering if it started again due to pill and weight loss ( i have lost only 22lbs post and 17 pre) thanks everyone!

My periods pre-op were normal for the most part. Sometimes they came a few days early but not too bad. Well Since surgery (8-31) I had a normal period in September then in Ocotber had a normal one mid month then 2 weeks later I started spotting and cramping and that lasted a few days. I had posed the question on FB about irregular periods after WLS and a lot of people told me it was because of the hormonal changes from rapid weight loss. When I go to see my surgeon on 11-29 will def address this issue with him. Sucks I know :(

My periods went really wonky after surgery. I got my period 5 days post op which was about 2-3 weeks earlier than normal. Then my period came 4 weeks after that (I was used to 6-7 week cycles) and there was spotting a couple days before it came. Also once that period started the bleeding was heavy. I was bleeding through overnight and maximum pads every 3-6 hours which had never happened before.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
