Many people experience what we call a "hormone dump" in the first month or so after surgery. Estrogen is stored in your fat cells, and when you lose a lot of weight very quickly, the hormones flood your system and it can be a bit like PMS but worse!
I would suggest calling your surgeon's office to see what they recommend about your estrogen pills.
