Ladies only....where's my period!!



Recommended Posts

Sorry, I usually am not one to post stuff like this but I want to know if anyone has experienced this.

Let me say a few things first:

1. I have had my tubes tied for a year.

2. I know that surgery can screw up your cycle.

3. I know that rapid weight loss/change in diet and metabolism can screw up your cycle.

So here's my story.

Banded 2-22-08, had a period like 3 days after surgery, I think a few days early but not sure, I dont track my cycle. I have since not had a period. By my calculations I am about a week late. I normally have 28 to 30 day cycles. My hubby brought this to my attentiion last night. He claims that he thought I was about to start last week, apparently he claims he can "tell".....ok, guess he knows my body better than I do. Anyway I cramped for like 15 min last week and nothing ever happened. DH says I am not acting like I will start anymore....again....ooook....lol. I am aware that I have an increased chance of an ectopic but I don;t think I feel prego.

I know that women who have weird or absent cycles will claim to feel like they will start and never do, but this is all new to me. I have ALWAYS been regular unless I was prego.

Question: How many of you have experienced a messed up cycle due to surgery and/or weight loss?

I was banded on 1/21/08 and I was also late this month (2 weeks). I knew that it was due to the surgery so I did really worry about it.

yes I am very regular. I meant to say that I did not really worry about it because I knew that it was because of the weight loss/surgery.
