Don't freak out.

Buy a pregnancy test. Piss on it, and feel better:)

Yes, it's very common to have menstrual irregularities with any major surgery.

Mine has been all over the place since surgery and I am even on the pill to " regulate" it. I would just take a pregnancy test to make sure it is negative but I think it is normal for your period to be irregular after.

Well I thertainly hope not, I missed the star in the East the last time. Besides Bariatric Surgeons tend to,get bent out of shape by such proceedings. That's why they caution against pregnancy for 18 months, you have to get healthy yourself before you go incubating another generation. I know major surgery can make you erratic as all get out but most,ladies on here complain about too much, not too little. If Auntie Flo doesn't make a visit before the end of the month maybe you,need to visit the gynecologist. Best to you.

Your body has gone through a major surgery. Your cycle is bound to be late. If you took a pregnancy test, prior to surgery and it came back negativity than most likely you are not pregnant. I would suggest waiting until the end of the week and then taking a home pregnancy test.

      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.
