Missed Period



Recommended Posts

So, right after surgery my period came early. Now my period is like 2 weeks late. I have literally NEVER missed my period since getting it at the age of 12 (as much as I'd wish it would) My period is more reliable than any of the previous men in my life! Now... nothing.

Happen to anyone else?

Also, definitely 100% not pregnant due to the fact that i'm single af & not the random hookup type

I had never missed a period either, and mine was due just over a week before surgery.. but never appeared until a week AFTER surgery. I think just the shock of the VLCD was enough to delay it. The first post surgery one was more horrific than usual (I had to have some of my remaining endone tablets along with my prescribed codeine the first 2 days and still spent a long time curled in bed feeling miserable) but my second has appeared on schedule. Expect the low calories and the change in hormones from both stomach removal and destruction of fat cells to cause some interference with your cycle.

Is it late from your original date or from when it came early after surgery?

I did not get my period in July the month of my surgery and so far haven’t gotten it in August either. I am not sexually active.

No worries, it'll come. Mine did, that's for sure! Just took some time for my body to adjust.

My first cycle came the second day I was in the hospital! I think it was a few days early at least. I think it was probably the shortest and lightest one I've ever had! I kind of hope that continues. . . But seeing as mine have always been a little irregular, I'm probably in for some weirdness!

Really grateful to all of you sharing, it helps to know what I might have coming my way!

      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.
