I have PCOS, had the sleeve surgery and still NO PERIOD :-(



Recommended Posts

Ever since I had my first period at 15 yrs of age my period would last 1 sometimes up to 3 years to show up. I have no ovarian cysts but super irregular. No Dr has been able to tell me why I cannot get my period even when I was prescribed Provera to provoke my period. I finally decided to get the sleeve surgery as a way to possibly conceive before I turn 40. I was sleeved on 1/09/2018 and till' this day I've had no signs of my period. Anyone else have the same issue? I fear i may be infertile even though tests show otherwise.

Your advise it greatly appreciated!

I have PCOS as well and I was able to have a child. Everyone is different your body is still adjusting. It is a big adjustment. Also, your periods may be different then other people’s you may not even bleed heavily like everyone else is you may just be discharging or see brown spots that may be confused by urine (sorry TMI) but don’t stress. We live in modern times. There is always a way to have a child. Look at all your options and talk to your doctor about it. Remember our bodies are going through an adjustment period. Focus on the weighloss and succeeding. Once your journey has settled, revisit this topic. Let your body heal and if tests have confirmed you are fertile then you are fertile. Good luck!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
