CherieRyde 227 Posted September 29, 2014 Ladies .... How has your surgery and resulting weight loss impacted your monthly cycle? I'm asking because, I'm starting to think that maybe I shouldn't intarweb until after I finally have my period. The ONE downfall of this weight loss is the massive delay in my cycle. 47 days is way too long, and I'm REALLY F-ING BITCHY! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Debbie3sons 1,936 Posted September 30, 2014 Since you are of the age ,I am going to let you know that I guess I was premenopausal & didn't even know it till I was thinking about having surgery & apparently I still am my pcp/ obgyn said it can take a few years well I hadn't had aunt flow for about a year , then a few weeks after surgery here came the river , so I texted my surgeon & told him to call me immediately because I was concerned & he did ,turns out surgery can do that & he said if it didn't stop in a couple of days to call him immediately , well it did stop & I haven't had flow in 2 years yes I am older than you but they say it can happen from the age of 30 , so make a appointment & go see your Doctor's, also I have heard surgery can make it haywire .

Bandista 7,466 Posted September 30, 2014 I think menopause is delayed for me now because I'm healthier. I have skipped cycles and thought I was done done, but no. The beat goes on...... I did want to lose the weight prior to menopause because I think it's more difficult after, but now I'm more relaxed with all that. The weight is coming off regardless. Speaking of hormones, though, the benefits of increased sexual energy are pretty amazing. Loving that.... The heavy periods, not so much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
