    Hello, I was wondering if anyone else had experienced a change in their cycle post-op? Mine has arrived at the normal time each month, but is much heavier than it was prior to surgery, and I feel so drained and have no energy, it seems to drag me down more than it used to. Any tips? Thanks

    Sorry, mine is just as punctual but is lighter--a fact I was thrilled with. I'm sorry to hear your body went the other way.
    Have you checked to make sure you're getting enough iron and protein before your cycle? I take vitamins and count my protein all the time. Don't know if that makes a difference in this case or not...

    Mine is more heavy and the cramping is more intense. I too feel so depleted and lack energy as well. I figure my intake is so low my body can't keep up.

    I should have had one exactly one week after surgery, nothing yet. I knew surgery would affect it but I hate waiting to see when it will return.
