Anyone here also use horomone replacments



Recommended Posts

Hello, just trying to see if any of my fellow sleevers also use horomone replacements? If so did your weight go up and down, was it harder for you to lose and maintain your weight?

Thanks,

Me

I had to go off the HRT in preparation for the surgery, and never went back on. I am glad to be free of them, but I am almost 60 and it was time anyway. I had been on them since my hysterectomy at 42. And that is exactly when my serious weight issues began.

I had surgery Oct 8 2102. I took my shot on Oct. 23 2012. I hit a stall that I couldnt lose anything for 3 weeks. When the shot went to working out of my system I started losing again. I havent took a shot since. I feel fine without it.

I had been suffering with hot flashes and night sweats for a couple years. Confirmed menopause, thought once I lost weight it would get better but it did not. Went on HRT, Patches. Too much estrogen, GAINED 13 lbs. Went back and told doc, nope I will suffer through no more. The weight came back around my gut. I am 47, so I figure I will deal with it until I hit goal and then evaluate.

Good luck to you.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
