Stop writing off the idea that it could be many things, including the vaccine, and should be investigated as such. |
Why don't you try decaf. Pretty women are capable of telling the difference between sudden menstrual changes immediately following vaccine versus gradual onset of perimenopause. |
"just being perimenepausal" - you are clearly someone who is young and has no idea how significant it can be. |
That's the point. It's often not gradual at all. It comes on very suddenly for many people. Exactly like the OP and others are describing. Why wouldn't you go to the doc and get checked for all the things? |
Do you take a pill or is there something like an iud? |
But many of us have. And our doctors don’t know, either, and are reluctant to make any definitive connections to the vaccine, so we’re kind of left guessing and wondering. And I understand that peri menopause can come on suddenly, but when “suddenly” equals “within 24 hours of getting a vaccine” Andover things are severely out of whack with anything you’ve ever experienced in your life, and then you hear that there are others with similar stories… I mean, c’mon. |
OP didn't say she had. She didn't give any indication that she did anything in particular. Perimenopause/menopause is still somehow a taboo thing, depsite lots of women going through it in their 30s. That you have been checked out is exactly what needs to happen, both for you and so that more data is collected. Your doctor can't do anything or give answers until there is more study and research done because it's a brand new issue, as far as I know. So going to the doc is key. |
Continuous birth control is taking birth control pills continuously so no placebo pills. Similar to seasonale. |
| Having a regular period isn't a sign of good health, having a irregular period isn't a sign of bad health. Infertility would be concerning, but I'm assuming none of you all are trying? |
In my case it was the next cycle, so about 2 1/2 weeks. Sure. It could be peri menopause but it’s also absolutely worth considering that it could be the vaccine. And I think a lot of people are afraid to talk about it because they don’t want to be labeled as anti-vaxxers, vaccine doubters and in general we don’t talk about our periods. In my case, as an otherwise healthy 41-year-old woman, with great blood work, no health concerns, I want to understand how the vaccine impacted my cycle. I now have my booster and will continue tracking my cycles to see if they get back on track. |
How about a period that lasts 49 days, half of those day so heavy that you can’t even leave your house? And then subsequent periods last from 10 to 20 days, whereas before the vaccine they were all predictably four days long, like clockwork, for decades. Is that good health or bad health? |
What did your doctor say? |
I was supposed to be trying. I am still waiting for my period to return. I am not taking a booster until I get pregnant. |
| It took about four months for my cycle to return to normal after my Pfizer shots in April of this year. I’m 35 and have had a 28-day cycle consistently since adolescence. |

I had something similar— no issues after booster though.
I have had recurrent yeast infections since the original shots though. |
