Menstrual differences after being sleeved????



Recommended Posts

This is TMI

I've always been on the heavier side of my periods and they would last 7-10days

I'm experiencing my first menstrual and it's totally different. I'm barely cramping and I'm very light. I'm on day 4 and it's super light still.

What has been your experience?

Does it change?

Should I worry?

Is this normal?

I had my surgery on the 15th and was suppose to start on the 22nd but never started... Will I just be late or will I skip this month?

I was sleeved on March 1st. My cycle came right on time on the 15th, and I had the worst cramps that I've had in years and very heavy. It didn't last any longer than my normal 3 days, though.

I spotted for a month after surgery,it sucked. dr said its normal for cycles to be off due to anesthesia and hormones being everywhere

I got my period the day after surgery because the universe is a cold and callous place. It's been WAYYYYY heavier than it usually would be, and I have a feeling it's gonna go longer, too. NOT a welcome change!

I started 2 days before my surgery, it was weirdly light after surgery. My next one after surgery came 4 days early and was horrendously heavy. But I had little to no cramping.

I've always had nasty, irregular, heavy, and long periods. I started, I think, 2 or 3 days after surgery and it was non-stop heavy until just before Valentine's day. It started up again on the 15th and lasted until just yesterday, heavy and non-stop. I thought maybe I could get a break, but nope. I started again today!

I am seriously at my wits end. My husband and I don't have sex because of it and he's on HRT to become a woman, so the meds make his genitals not work. I'm not getting to enjoy the last months of his junk working, and now I am crying about it.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
