Laprascopy Surgery? Weight Loss? Cyst?
If I have this surgery to remove a complex (a least 5cm) cyst that has gone unchecked by sonorgram since October (will be rechecked this week).....then can I possibly lose weight after surgery? I go months, even a year or so, with a period because of this reoccuring cyst and so it has obviously caused a major hormonal imbalance. Is it typically common to lose a bit of weight? I was always very frail as a child and growing up and then when this happened I have gained a lot of weight in my lower abdomen...and nowhere else! I can't help but think this cyst is causing this. Anybody else out there share this problem...or had surgery and had some significant weight loss afterwards? Thanks and yes I do work out but a cyst permits hormonal imbalance so there is only so much I can medically do to prevent weight gain. I don't have pcos just one cyst

- Yes, sometimes weight loss can occur after a laparoscopy. I've had 4 to deal with endometriosis (1 to diagnose the endo, and 3 to check the status) and lost some weight after each of my surgeries. I lost on average about 10 lbs, but then later on gained it all back.
