female only Menstrual irregularities

[SleevedJune62013 167]

My last period started May 25th. I was sleeved June 6th. I'm usually very regular. I should have started around June 25th but still haven't. There's no way I'm pregnant. Is anyone else experiencing menstrual irregularities?

Could be the shock of the surgery. I had gallbladder surgery in December and I had my period 2 weeks before and a day after surgery, I had another. I was FREAKING OUT because that was my first surgery ever, so I thought I was bleeding from the inside or something! LoL! I had 2 periods again the next month, and the next I was back to normal. They even told me if it didn't stop or anything to see my OB/GYN. I was like, "Y'all are the ones who did it to me!" Ha!

I'm on mirena and usually do not get my period and I got it the first week after surgery (losing 20lbs in a week can do that to you) and then 4 weeks later I got it again (just for one day this time). I think the weight loss causes your hormones to be all outta wack.

My cycle was crazy post op. Came on time a few days after surgery & cramps were excruciating. Lasted for a couple of days. Back to regular cycle for next 2 months. Then no cycle for 2 months. When cycle returned, got it twice in 1 month. Cycle back to normal now. Doc said it was related to hormonal & weight changes from procedure.

I had mine 1 week before surgery and then again 4 days after! I think it's pretty normal to be abnormal!

I am pretty much on the same schedule as you are, and I do not take any BC. I was sleeved on June 5, had my period the week before, and I have not had it since. However, I am retaining Water like nobody's business! ARGH! I hope this is normal, because there is no way I am pregnant either.

So glad I found this thread!!! I was sleeved a week ago, quit smoking 2 weeks before that, and haven't had a period in 6 weeks. I have my tubes tied and my boyfriend has had a vasectomy, so pregnancy isn't a concern. I keep waiting for it to show up, but.....

I was sleeved May 6th, and have only had maybe 2 weeks of NOT bleeding.... Not a lot, but still...

I finally started so I'm just gonna assume our bodies were or are in shock & weird is the new norm. Lol.

Yup. Today for me too. I guess things are just going to be out of whack for a while.

Hey Ladies, what about PMS post op? I have my period 3 days after surgery which was about 10 days early. I am now 3 weeks post op. My appitite seemed to get way ramped up yesterday and today. If my early last period reset my schedual, this would be my normal super hungry PMS time. Is everyone's PMS still behaving normally? Do you eat more during that time?

[SleevedJune62013 167]

YES! Salty then sweet. I had my usual PMS munching issues. Thankfully there's not a lot of room in the tummy to call it my usual PMS binge eating though.

I had surgery 7/2 & started 7/5. It was slowing down until I woke up this morning. The Dr did say to expect irregularities but its just annoying! Oh to be man!!

[zenandnow 514]

My dr never mentioned this; first I heard of it was on here! Thank god for the powder Room!

I've been regular, no changes from my normal schedule, but WOW, are my cramps awful! And I have NO energy. I am just wiped out. I guess that's normal too, I just didn't expect it. Thankfully my TOM is over the weekend so I can rest. Don't think I could work through this!
