Hi everyone,

I have a question but I'll give you a little of my back story first.

I'm 26, have never had normal periods. Last year I found out that I had hyperplasia. This is what led to me being put on prometrium (200mg vaginally). I had my Rny in April of this year.
Because I take the prometrium daily, I don't have a period. Sometimes I have a little light discharge but no actual period.
My last two biopsies have come back clean.

My Dr had advised to use Condoms (as most bc is hormonal and she doesn't want to use that because of my hyoerplasia).
Is there any chance that I could get pregnant now? I want to wait until at least a year after surgery, so don't worry about that.. I'm just curious to see if the prometrium would stop my chances of getting pregnant all together?

If your doctor is advising you to use condoms, I'd assume it is because you could get pregnant.  Condoms suck, but I'd go with what the doc suggests.  If you're really against condoms, there are always other barrier methods such as a diaphragm.  Either way, I'd ask the doc.
