Im 4wks post op, and two weeks late, which is not normal for me so I was wondering if the surgery had anything to do with it?

Does it stop for the few months or just irregular? Do you know why this happens?

Mine skipped a month and then become irregular (6 weeks between). And... the duration pre surgery was 3-4 days and after surgery 8-9 days. So much I needed to take Iron supplement during the period.

Now I am 8 months out and pretty much back to normal. 30 days between (this is my normal) and 4-5 days duration (much closer to 3-4). But the big difference - the amount..... and when I say amount.... I mean tampons were not working... needed tampon and pads every 1-2 hours.

Sorry - I know TMI!!! but you asked :)

As for why - I asked my OB. She mentioned I am here 2-3 patient with this surgery (she is very young) and she thinks it the overall shock to the system after surgery. The hormones just are so out of balance they cannot keep up and so everything is off.

Hello ,

I haven't had a period in 6 months . But after surgery I got it 4 days later and I couldn't be happier . Already one of my health issue is been resolved.

i got mine 2days post op, so I'm monitoring this next one closely. As someone with horrible cycles, I'm kind of hoping for a break this month. ;)

I had mine when I had surgery, I was just ending it. Then I got it again 2 weeks later and had it for 3 weeks. It had been so irregular. I'm on jolessa and typically only have my period every 3 months but now I'm out of whack so god knows when I'll have it again. I'm also 3 months post op on Dec 1.

My periods have been irregular since I was sleeved in June. Actually, I've missed the last two. Saw my gyno Tues and he said totally normal after the sleeve. Even if you feel great, there's a lot of things going on in your body from months before. I'm just letting my body do its thing. Good luck.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
