Surgery can cause some hormonal shifts for sure. If you're post-menopausal, it's a good idea to mention it to your surgeon or gynecologist and see what they advise. If you're younger and just have secondary amenorrhea, losing weight might be causing a return of more normal cycles.

Before my surgery I hadn't had a cycle for 3 years is it normal to get one one month after surgery

I am assuming you are post menopausal having not had a period in 3 years. Or perhaps you have had other medical history and are young and simply did not get your period. So a bit of background matters.

I have read a few articles online that says the stress of surgery /going under can induce a period. But depending on your situation, if you are post menopausal, I would check with my GP right away to see if that means anything different. Its like the hormonal changes.

How long ago was your surgery is also an important factor. Better to ask a doc a question on that one

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
