After Tubiligation and having harsh menstrual cycle?

I have recently had a tubiligation performed. it is now just shy of a month later and my period is not normal at all. At the same time as my tubiligation I had to have a D and C done because i had been pregnant but the baby had died and instead of going through that pain again i decided on the tubiligation no i am rgreting it because it hurts alot right now. I have been spotting for almost 2 weeks now but it keeps changing in colour and in heaviness. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

I had a tubal in february of 2002 and I still get harsh periods once in  a while.  I had a daughter and a son and decided it was time.  I don't regret that I did it because I started to get use to the periods and PAIN and it seems to be easier as I learn to deal..  A couple tips on dealing with the cramps:  No caffien that makes them way worse,  don't rely on pain meds they are so addicting and soooooooooo temporary, it seems like the cramps are worse when the meds ware off.  I have family that are opiot addicts so I was very carefl not to use them,  but on the DL  smoking a little green helps so much don't make a habit of it but really no joke one toke no cramps and finally a good nights sleep!!!!!

I am a healthy 37 year old female. I had to have an abotion in September, and had a tubaligation in November. I had a light period the first week of January. Since then, I have had a lot of cramping and pms symptoms. I feel like I am going to start my period, and then never do. Is it stress, thyroid problems, hormonal imbalance, or all of the above. I feel bloated a lot and don't know what to do. Please help me with some professional medical advice. Thanks for your time.

My periods also became longer and harsher after my tubal.  I wish someone would have told me that would happen.  I probably wouldn't have changed my mind (had two miscarriages and was DONE) but being informed feels better than being shocked with this whole new cycle that I have.  Good luck!

You are not alone!  I had a tubal ligation 6 years ago.  My
period took awhile to be normal again.   I noticed more pain
and heavier periods.  I found out the pain was caused by ovarian
cysts.  Maybe you're having a harsher period because you had
a D & C.  Your best bet is to talk to your OB/GYN and tell him/her your symptoms.
