K so what's up with my TOM?? Totally different. Coming on time, but it starts off really brown, then red then back to really 'dry' brown? Never been like that before. Except like on the last day.

Mine came on time, but was very light & only lasted 2 days! Normally it lasts about 4 days. Of course I am not complaining!

I had a hysterectomy at age 33. My "Visitor" was like yours every time; doctor said it was a "hormone" thing.

I hope surgery doesn't kick start my periods. I have Mirena so I am glad to have no period.

Ive got a Mirena and I had a small (extremely light)& short period a few weeks after surgery and nothing since.

I still get the cramps and breast fatigue- but no blood or spotting.

Hurray for no period and weight loss! :)

I have mirena & hadn't had my period for 3 years. The day after surgery I got it & it lasted forever. Since then, I've had it every month. I'm so bummed cuz I hate it & I've also had the worst cramps ever now. My gyno said that an iud can cause cramps to worsen so I guess I'm just screwed in that.area now. Sucks!!!!!

I had depo, not mirena I know, and I had actually stopped 3 month's before surgery to kind of purge my system. Well I didn't get a period at all, I even waited for another 3 months before getting my shot again.

I have heard some people who had their period with depo so it might just depend on your body.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
