I am 3 weeks out from gastric bypass surgery and I am struggling with being able to sleep. Melatonin did nothing. Do hormonal shifts contribute to this? I’ve never had trouble sleeping lol. The only thing that works is taking .25 mg of Xanax but I don’t want to live on that.

hormone issues seem to be pretty common after WLS. I haven't heard much about it affecting sleep specifically (I hear about emotional issues and screwed-up menstrual cycles A LOT, though), but that sounds plausible..
