Theoretically they should get better provided you don't have fibroids or something like that causing the problem. Fat actually converts substances to estrogen which increases in obesity. Your estrogen levels will go down which should decrease the amount of monthly build up in your uterus. That being said, women report changes in their periods all over the board. Some worse, some better. Me personally, I had very heavy periods before surgery and I just finished my first cycle since surgery. I had 6 days of spotting and 1 1/2 days of bleeding. Overall better.
