A member asked:
Could gallbladder surgery throw your period off?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, briefly: After surgery, hormone levels change as a consequence of stress of surgery. This can alter the timing of your period. However, this is generally not more than a few weeks, so if you have missed more than one period, you should check with your gynecologist to rule out pregnancy or other causes.
