ashleybrady87 16 Posted September 1, 2016 I'm seeking some advice for my cycle. Prior to surgery April 2015 I had regular every 28 days that would last 3-5 days and be medium flow no cramping. After surgery it took five months for me to get a period at all and when I finally did they have been 2 days long no cramping but very light barely spotting. Continue to use the pill properly. Not sure what's going on as my obgyn is not familiar with gastric bypass patients. 122 pounds down. This month it is two days late but I am not sexually active. Any thoughts?

LMSWNYC 119 Posted September 4, 2016 6 months post op and i have my period about every 2 weeks since surgery date. My periods are longer than 7 days, usually 9-15. My gyn and surgeon informed me this was normal post op and should regulate once my weight stabilizes. I plan to lose more weight within the next 6 months therefore I dont see this issues disappearing just yet. I do have pcos and feel like the surgery has improved my symptoms as I was not having a regular period before surgery. It was very sparatic prior to vgs. I am hopeful it will regulate once I lose more weight and am at a maintenance phase. Hope this feedback helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
