Mrs. Reid 392 Posted November 10, 2014 Hormones are stored in fat. When you lose fat those hormones get dumped into your system. I have been warned that I may start having periods again after my surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonbini 67 Posted November 10, 2014 I had the same thing happen to me. By 5 months I only had it once a month!! I hope it stops faster for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iwhit 3 Posted November 10, 2014 Same here....hadn't had a period in months before surgery. After surgery, I had my period for 2 months straight until it was somewhat regulated with provera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WL WARRIOR 692 Posted November 10, 2014 I just started taking a hormone pill today. I didn't ask for it but the doctor found it necessary for women after bariatric surgery. Not only is my period kind of screwy, I'm also mildly breaking out on my face and getting a splotchy appearance. The doc says it is all contributed to hormones from the surgery itself and the release of them as I lose weight. I hope the pills help. I think birth control pills also balance your hormones.
