alycopp78 33 Posted September 5, 2015 I am just about two weeks post-op. And I have had my period, or what I am calling a period but really isn't cause I wasn't due for a while, since 3 days post-op. I know the blood thinners caused it, but I haven't had them in 5 days. Is it ever going to stop?! Anyone else experience this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Margie122 845 Posted September 6, 2015 The rapid weight loss causes havoc on your cycle. I got my period early too and I have read where some women have it for much longer or even heavier than usual. It can take a few months to get back on track. If it's really bad you might want to call your OBGYN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
onesleevedmamma 178 Posted September 8, 2015 I had a period 2 days after and then 2 weeks after. Then I love had 2 more. So like 5 in almost 4 months . Dr said it's normal and as the weight balances out, so will my periods Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jhclikesshopping@gmail.com 285 Posted September 8, 2015 Hi there. I had the exact same problem. My OB said take extra Iron when I have extra long period. That really helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sshawk69 17 Posted September 8, 2015 I was sleeved on 8/17/15 I stopped having my monthly years ago!!! But when I came home I was cramps and spotted I would say it has something to do with the surgery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VanessaVSGforme 276 Posted September 8, 2015 Day AFTER surgery I woke up to my period! It was awful. I already could hardly move because IV and drain tube but now I had to deal with changing pads and trying to keep clean. It was horrible. Surgery was 9/2...went home 9/4...and just yesterday finally stopped. It was a heavy one too! Sorry if that was TMI...???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
