Nausea during PMS



Recommended Posts

I'm 7 weeks out from surgery and will have my second period since the surgery next week. I've noticed I'm very nauseous to the point that I only can eat broth and crackers. Can anyone relate to this? Are my PMS hormones going crazy now that I'm losing weight?

For the record, I've ways had a regular cycle and PMS. I've just never had nausea this bad before. I really hope things even out in the future so I don't feel sick.

I can't help you with this because I was never regular and stopped having periods after my Hysto when I was 32YO. I'm now 61YO. LOL But I can say this...I have heard that our hormones are stored in our fat!!! So that might be what you are feeling. I'm sorry about all of this going on. Hopefully, it will all work out. if you are really concerned I would take it up with my Dr. they should be able to address this better than I can. Good Luck. GREAT weight loss!!! Congratulations!!

I am about 8 months out and my PMS is just crazy. I have depression and mood swings and nausea as well. I'm on the pill and have been the whole time, so I'm not sure if maybe I need a new Rx now that I'm down 114 pounds or what. But yeah it seems to be really common to have our hormones go totally out of whack after this surgery. My poor husband!

I will say it seems to have shifted over the whole time. I don't feel very sick anymore, but I do feel more depressed during that time. So maybe just monitor it and see your GYN in a few months if it doesn't ease up!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
