giggles232000 56 Posted April 8, 2013 Ok I know when you lose alot of weight at first it can affect your cycle, but how bad can it affect it, I am down 66lbs in less then 4 months and my cycle this month is pretty much nothing its all spotting, its making me a little worried, I know my body is changing alot and that it can affect that but when it changed that much its now scarying me, anyone else have the same issue? I just want to make sure I am not alone, I have a Dr on Wed I am going to talk to them about it also. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharonintx 1,275 Posted April 8, 2013 Well giggles - I have a mirena and the monthly cycle isn't an issue for me personally but this is what I can tell you: yes, your cycle can definitely be affected by the drastic weight loss you are having. The sleeve has changed everything your body knew about itself and now it's having to readjust. Asking your Dr is a great idea. I'm pretty sure he/she will ease your worries about this issue. I wouldn't spend a lot of time worrying though:) 1 Ballermom reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pookeyism 1,143 Posted April 8, 2013 Your cycle can definately be affected, as can your fertility. It is easier to accidentally get pregnant, too. That makes for a very scary situation with pre-natal malnutrition. My cycle did vary - more like a reset, in a way - twice. I call it reset cause it reminded me of hitting reset in a game - you go back to where you hit the button at, I would start on say the 1st, then have it early, say the 10th, but from there on out until it changed again it would be a 27-28 day cycle. 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
