alot of people have weird things happen to their cycle. i have heard of people not getting it for a while and others who have it forever. I am 7 weeks post op and have spotted pretty much every day since surgery and had my period right on schedule.

Surgery date 7/30, period next day.miserable in hospital n it was my girls 3 yr birthday. We had balloons, presents n all i could do was sit up for her cause i was star extremely heavy. They wanted me to stay in bed that whole morning. Started 1 month later close to 30 days.

The surgery made me start my period and I was on it for about 2 weeks. Then one week later my actual period started! so I was on by period from Aug 30—until like one week ago! Everyone may be different..

I have been getting it every 15 to 17 days since a month before surgery and now after the same. My PCP said it was stress and now my body is adjusting.

So these period changes are they hormone changes from losing weight?

I have NEVER been regular on my periods until, I had my gastric bypass, now I get it every month like clock work. I hate being a girl sometimes.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
