I had been having heavy cycles could it get worse?.. What about birth control? I used to be on Depo for 6 years...I really don't want to go back on that...I loved it, but it did take me a while to get regular again and I hear about all the conceiving issues people have had. I only have one child and would probably like to have another before I'm 40!

It's been getting shorter but I always had heavy bleeding. I was thinking of going on the birth control that you get your period every 3 months. I hate period period!!! I can see how that works out for a year & see if I should continue it or have a Procedure to remove the period.

Thank you ladies! Glad to I'm not the only one with crazy hormones! Lol

Hi, mine have been awful very very painful where I'm in bed for the first 2 days and really heavy and I get light headed and tired, bought extra Iron to see if that will help :-) oh and surgery delayed it too, I used to start around the 14th ish every month now it's like the 24-25th

I have the IUD and haven't really had a normal period maybe once every three to six months and it usually lasted one to two days... Since surgery, I've had three periods in one month, lasting three to five days.not fun!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
