Was banded on the 18th & was on my period. It stopped early. I thought it may be the anesthesia???

Siemers17, I'm not sure I understaqnd what you're saying, but you're having vaginal bleeding after your period has stopped?

If it concerns you, why are you asking about that in a lap-band post-op area, instead of calling your doctor or GYN?

Because you're banded doesn't mean that everything that happens to your body from here on out will be a product of your band. If this is atypical for you, concerning you in any way, or causing you any pain -- heck, even if you're just curious, you'd really be better served by calling your GYN.

Best of luck.

I had my period on the day of surgery, it came early, 24 days between, instead of my usual 28. Since the surgery, its come every 24 days. I have an appt with the GYN in April, so I can find out why there was this change.

Definately talk to your doctor.

I was banded on 3/24. The last mandatory hospital class I went to, they told us that no matter when you had your last period you would probably get it again right after surgery.

Hmmm...that's interesting. I wonder why?

I was told the same thing. I was banded on the 18th and my period has been off and on since then. They say the anesthesia messes it up.

There can be many reasons for it but probably not related to the band but maybe the anesthesia. Call you doctor and ask. I've been spotting for the last 6 months about a week before I start. Your cycle can change with age and for many reasons.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
