The medical term for cramps.
any abnormality of a woman's menstrual cycle, such as absence of menses, heavy bleeding, or irregular menses. All of these are frequently associated with the inability of a couple to achieve a pregnancy or to carry a pregnancy to term after one year of unprotected intercourse, which is the medical definition of infertility. In women with morbid obesity, it turns out that the fat cells (which secrete a tiny amount of hormone from each cell) put out enough hormones to throw the entire system out of balance. Many of our WLS patients who were infertile prior to surgery can safely carry a child after surgery (once weight is stabilized - it is VERY IMPORTANT to avoid pregancy while the patient is still losing weight.)
