Monthly Period!



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on Nov. 2nd. Unlike most people I did not start my period right after my surgery. My period started Nov. 15th. And it is still there. It is really lite but is still going! Is this normal?!

Surgery is a major hit to your body.... and it takes a long time for everything including your period to get back to normal. At times my period lasted like 3 wks. it will all work out over time... hang in there :)

It goes back to normal around 3/4 months.

Yeah but that's the thing I'm 4 months out and it barely started... I should already be back to normal

Ok.... I'm 5 1/2 mos. Out & I've only had 3 periods since my surgery. Pre-op I ran like a well oiled machine. I could tell you a month in advance of when I was going to start my period I had it pin pointed to within 3 hours of knowing the time of day I would start. Now, I will bleed for a few days, stop a few, bleed a week, then go as much as 2 months w/o bleeding. It's frustrating. So much for pcos being resolved... Can't take meds for it now though because it makes my sugars too low.

I've just been crazy busy trying to keep my twins out of EVERYTHING.... My house looks like a disaster. Then right before Christmas I developed a bleeding ulcer, It's better now. I'll add pics soon. I'm frustrated. I've lost 4 lbs shy of 100lbs but am only down 2 pants sizes. Grrr, lol I feel amazing.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
