My period has gone crazy!



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on 5/13/15 and my period was the week before which was normal. My surgery weight was 205. I lost 15 pounds in the 1st 2 weeks and only about a pound or so this 3rd week. But i have been bleeding off and on since surgery and now im at a full fledged bleed like a normal period only it's a week early. Has anyone else had this issue after being sleeved?

YES! If I've had 2 weeks since surgery that I haven't been bleeding or spotting, it's a lot. I've heard it's from the estrogen releasing from fat, but need to get back to the doc about it. Had to go on Iron, and resisting a D&C.

I hope yours straightens itself out ASAP!

Mine started early...I had surgery Monday morning, my period started that Thursday. Much lighter than normal. Lasted three days, which is a little less than normal. Haven't had one since (im three weeks post op now). I'm wondering if the lack of nutrition will effect it now? Usually fertility is first to go when your body is going through trauma.

Make sure you all don't become anemic! Have your levels checked by a doctor!

Mine is crazy. I work in GYN and it's normal because of the rapid weight loss. I was sleeved 4/8

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
