Tmi? - Ladies - Anyone Else Have Period Problems Post-Op?

Ok... I must be weird then. I have mirena and haven't had a period since surgery on the 18th. No spotting, nothing. Of course they gave me a blood pregnancy test the day of. Just think it's how my body is dealing with it.

I have a mirena too, no period for 6 months and I got sleeved 7 days ago and I'm on my 5th day of bleeding, I think it's just cos your hormones are all over the place!

I take Seasonale extended-cycle birth control pills. I had to go off of them one month prior to surgery and was told not to resume them until one month after surgery as yet another precautionary measure for preventing blood clots. I had my period 5 days after I stopped taking them in February, but did not have a cycle at all since then. I started taking the first of my three months of pills in mid-April. I have had no break-through bleeding or the headache I typically get a day or two before my cycle begins. I will find out in mid-July if I am back to "normal" or not. I am 50 and don't mind if I never have another period so long as I am healthy . . . but I have been curious as to why I didn't have a period.

Grr. One week of spotting post op, one week good and now spotting again. Dear body.... Do you really have to do this?
