NewSarah2013 7 Posted February 5, 2013 So I am a month post op and im supposed to get my period any minute now. I'm not having my normal pre period happenings though and don't feel it coming on. Did any of you have changes to your cycle following surgery? I am definately NOT pregnant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lander 74 Posted February 5, 2013 After surgery we are supposed to have a huge release of hormones through our body that definitely affects these things so you may notice some difference. I definitely did. I hadn't had a period for six months prior to surgery - starting into menopause and within a month of surgery there is was again. I was not thrilled.

sleever10 109 Posted February 6, 2013 My period came the month after surgery. It was very, very heavy. Ugh! Hope the next one isn't! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiki1196 101 Posted February 6, 2013 My PCP said when you lose weight the estrogen stored in the fat cells is released and can cause heavier periods. On the other hand, the stress of the surgery could throw you off for the first month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
