Has any woman had a TT when their menstrual was on? Did your doctor still perform surgery? If so how was the pain such as cramps etc....

I didn't have my cycle during my PS, but during my gastic bypass I did. They didn't do anything differently or act like it was an issue (I warned them and asked if I'd need to wear an undergarment with a pad and they said no. Guess they've seen it all! I didn't even notice my cramps in comparison and let me tell you, I have some awful cramps!

Good luck!

I just had my TT last Wednesday.  I was having my menstrual cycle.  I let them know and there wasn't a problem with it.  They put a pad in my 'underwear' and went ahead with the surgery.  I felt no cramping pains because of the pain meds.
