KRush88 105 Posted July 29, 2018 Hello all, I’m knew to the group( hey y’all)! I have a surgery date of August 6. I’m excited but now I’m really nervous being that I’m less than two weeks out. So many things are in my head but tonight I got to thinking about how different my cycle maybe, currently have a cycle every 21 days and over the course of 13 years after many children (4), my cycle have went from three days minimal bleeding no cramping too many days sometimes more than seven. lots of cramps. lots of side effects. So now I’m really concerned that having gastric sleeve is going to change my cycle for the worse. Any of you ladies have complications with your cycle after surgery? Thanks in advance, An excited, impatient, nervous soon to be sleever! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenTealael 25,430 Posted July 29, 2018 The lighter I have gotten, the lighter my cycle has gotten.

LaLaDee 519 Posted August 7, 2018 My cycle had changed. I’m 34, no kids. I’ve gone from a 28 day cycle to a 24 day cycle. I also used to start quite light, now it’s heavier and shorter I think. I’m a year out and this 24 day thing is pretty weird. 2 Frustr8 and KRush88 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LaLaDee 519 Posted August 8, 2018 First day of your period is “day one”. So you might count 28 days and then you get your period again and you start a new cycle. A typical cycle is usually 28 days, but it can vary from 21 to 35 days. I track my cycle using an app, but you can just circle the first day of your period in your paper diary and count back to your last circle. This helps you know when your period is due and what your cycle is. There is a lot of info online and apps that help you know when in your cycle you are most likely to conceive too and how to track it. 1 KRush88 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
