A member asked:
Is it normal to miss a period after surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can be.: Surgery is a stressful event for the body and for many women, stress can have a major effect on their menstrual cycle. The location and type of surgery can also influence menstruation. If you have not had unprotected sex, then the stress of surgery is the likely culprit for a missed period.
