My Period Came 2 Weeks Early



Recommended Posts

I'm 4 days post-op and dealing with the gas pains and this morning I wake up with terrible cramps. I'm thinking oMG, what is happening? I go to the bathroom and discovered I'm starting my period...2 weeks early! What the hell. Has this happened to anyone else? I specifically planed so I would have a couple of weeks before I had to deal with it.

I hate those kind of surprises.

It seems VSG can throw in some unexpected timing there. On the other side of it, I was never regular and now I've had two cycles with timing I can count on. Go figure!

OMG! this sounds like me EXACTLY! i took was just sleeved on November 6th!!!

i had the same issue at 2 am and then again at 5am last night!!! and i didnt realize what was going on. ESPECIALLY because i havent seen my period in. TWO.YEARS. i have implanon in my arm the birth control. i called the nurses line just to make sure it wasnt anything to freak out about and he said it was totally normal and that it does happen. that is insane that the same exact thing happened to you lol. but we are ok and normal. it just kinda sux for me i loved not getting my period. hope you are healing well and getting your fluids in with no problem :) still a struggle for me...

Thanks for making me feel more normal! I'm only able to get one Protein drink down (24 grams) and about 16 oz of Water thus far. I can only take the tiniest sips. But I keep trying to up the amount...hang in there...we'll make it!

You got that right! I like the silver lining you found. Lets hope I stay regular after this shock to the old system calms down!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
