Ughhh Aunt Flow is here... AGAIN!



Recommended Posts

I know it's normal for your period to be irregular after surgery but seriously?? I'm just about 8 weeks post op and am on my period for the FOURTH time since surgery! Every two weeks I turn around and there she is again! I was on a normal cycle before surgery, am not on any type of birth control and haven't been for quite some time.

The most frustrating part is the weight gain randomness... I finally broke a 3 week stall, past the 50 lbs down mark and then BAM I'm up 2-3 lbs again. FRUSTRATED!

Aunt Flow has definately out-stayed her welcome! I'm pre-surgery, but I am seeing that a lot of people on here who experience a stall go back to liquids for a bit? Losing weight during your period is tough. I can't imagine!!

This is me too. I'm about 4 months out from surgery now, and FINALLY starting to see it slow down some. The first 90 days after surgery, I had a period for ~50-60 of them!! I had a period every 2 weeks that lasted 2-3 weeks. It was SOOO annoying. Now it's coming about every 3 weeks, and lasting about a week and a half.

I was extremely regular before, and was not (and am not currently) on birth control. I'm hoping my body can get back to that regular cycle soon. My doc said it usually takes 4-6 months to get back to normal.

4-6 months?? Ahh! Guess I should go hit Sams club for the bulk pack of tampons!

I haven't taken the pill for over 20 years and have always been fairly regular; 26-31 day cycles. Since June (6 months post-op) my cycles have been every 25 days. Don't know if it's my age (41) or the weight loss, but I'd like to head back to 28+ days myself!

i have not seen aunt flow since 2006 due to endometrial ablation procedure, i sure as heck hope she dont come back after i get sleeved. the chances are slim to none, but it sure is scary to think about going through that all over again

      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.
