Ladies: Post sleeve menses question!



Recommended Posts

Has your sleeve or weight loss had an affect on your monthly cycle? My cycle (which had been absent for 4 months due to an IUD) showed up 4 days post-op and has been steady (albeit lightly) flowing for the last 3 weeks.

Anyone else have similar issues?

Yes...FAT holds a lot of hormones and if you are releasing the fat, your period may get out of whack. I've had my period TWICE since 8/17. GOOD TIMES. The good news is it wasn't as HEAVY as it used to be. It's pretty normal and it should regulate itself soon. For more information search for it under the post-op topics, there are a lot of threads about it.

GOOD LUCK!

Mine was 9 days late and wicked heavy. It lasted about the normal length of time though.
