I am wondering if any of you have experienced this. ...  I had not had my period in a couple of years.  I thought I was all done even though I am only in my 40's.  Well, I have been exercising and eating better and lo and behold, I just started my period.  My GYN said this could happen but I just laughed.  Just curious if anyone else's body has been changing like this. I was 50 when I was banded. I was normally cycling.  I had my surgery ...Then nothing.... I waited a few months..even took a pregnancy test because I obviously am in denial or my age...lol but finally I went to the obgyn and she said the surgery may have pushed up my menopause a bit.  Then 16 months later I got a period for 2 days... Then nothing again so I went back to my obgyn and she did all kinds of tests and I was in fact post menopausal.... However she thinks the blending was a result of some fibroids shrinking and breaking down as they do after menopause. If I were you just keep track and maybe see your dr again for a check up. I'm 38 only had a couple of periods a year, hadn't had one in nine months, had my surgery in June, I had one every month now after the first 20 lbs of weight loss, so our hormones are affected with weight loss now I'm afraid of getting pregnant
