Can hormones be affected by general anasthesia?

Question:

I had surgery and was advised that my hormonal changes could be due to anesthesia.

Answers:
I agree. I don't think anesthesia alone will effect your hormones. But the stress of any surgery can cause your period to come around alot faster than normal.
Be good to yourself and drink lots of water to flush out all that anesthesia.

Other Answers:
I don't know. But I would imagine that the stress of surgery certainly could do so.

it wont effect your hormones. but if your having surgery and you get put on morphine and you've had your period like 2 weeks before your surgry then you may get another when you come home. I have no idea what it is caused from, because Thats what happened to me. good luck dont panic because its normal.
