female only Time Of The Month During Your Surgery?

[SexySlim 107]

Mine was six days late and started the morning of my surgery. I was pissed! I thought they were going to give me disposable panties. The nurse told me to put some gause pads in my crotch ummm no thanks. She let me wear a tampon.

I started the morning after surgery, which was a week early! I had my surgery done at Medical City Dallas which caters to WLS patients. My nurse said it is very common, though they don't know why???!!!???

I was actually logging on here to ask that exact question. My surgery is on Monday and my period started today. Sigh....

OMG! So glad this question was posted because I am due for surgery on Thursday and this morning I have the familiar rumblings of an approching period. grrrrrr!! My question is will I be able to bend enough to insert a tampon or will the post op pain be too bad to allow for this? I don't want to wear the mess panties and pad and risk bleeding all over myself because I'm forced into being in a laying position....anwers please ladies?

My period came yesterday, two days after surgery. Last month it came late, so I though I was in the clear. Since the stress of surgery, it decided to come two week early.

I am going to have that issue too! Hope they allow me to have panties and a pad....I am early but I think is because I have lost 16 pounds since day one of my liquid diet.< /p>

Wow 16 lbs from just the liquid diet! Congratulations, I start mines next Monday. What did your pre op diet consists of?

I have been losing quick too. I am 11 lbs down from Sunday morning (Its Saturday am now). Also, I tend to put on 4-6 lbs the first day of my period and I still lost since yesterday. My husband was joking and said if I keep this up, in 2 months I'm going to be on maintenance already. Wouldn't that be nice. haha

I was on during my surgery. They ha me to lay on a pad and that was all until later that night. They told me absolutely no to tampons.

In a week? What has your diet consist of

In a week? What has your diet consist of

I am having between 70-90 grams of Protein and about 28 grams of carbs a day. I also am drinking TONS of fluids, broth, crystal lite and Jello (sugar free). My Protein drinks are EAS Carb control and GNC 100% whey Protein over the course of a day. Also, I get one sugar free popsicle a day and of course all Vitamins have at least 1g of carb so I add that to my 30 or less carb count.

They say anesthesia cause your period to come so even if not during surgery it most likely will hassle you just after!

I was kinda lucky. My period came early, on the Thursday before my Tuesday surgery, but since tuesday was my last day, it lingered a teeny bit.

It's actually the Lovenox that made it kinda linger. The blood thinner injections they gave me! I had one every 8 hours in the hospital.
