fluke?

I know there are plenty of women on here with PCOS, but I have a specific question.

I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 14.  Since then, I have been on Provera to start my period.  With the band, once I lost 85 pounds, I did get a period without medicine, but only once.  (Might have been because soon after that, my band came out due to erosion and my weight gain started again).

Today, at almost 6 weeks out and not quite 30 pounds down, I did get my period without medication.

My specific question:
--Has anyone with PCOS as severe as mine (only medical-induced periods) ever get their period on their own post-op?
--If so, did it become regular or is this just a fluke kind of thing?

Sorry if you learned more about me than you wanted to!

It is because of the weight loss. As you continue to lose more weight, chances are your cycle will become regular. Mine have not as of yet, but I have only lost 18 pounds. I bet with another 15 lbs loss my cycle will get regular too.

I have only ever had periods with provera or the pill. Since my surgery, I had my cycle 2 weeks post op, and every 33 days since. Regular like clock work.

Yay!  That's exciting to me!  Thanks for the info.

i had rny 2.5 months ago and had two periods w/out my birth control pill. i use demulen. but i am back on it to control my hormone surge i have right before my period. i get very hungry and get pimples. i feel alot better now that i am back on it. but yes, i have gotten my period w/out medication. it was awesome. and a great period too.
