my menstrual cycle still messes up after pfizer shot since March 2021?

Not trying to dismiss the possiblitity, but it's worth ruling out other avenues too.

Sure you aren't. Millions of 33 yearolds are suddenly perimenopausal, ironically right after being vaccinated.

No, PP - this is real. Be happy that it didn't impact you.

What evidence do you have that millions of 33 year olds have had menstrual changes? I think that definitely would have come up in the trials. What wouldn’t have come up would be a normal number of women having menstrual changes in both vaccine and placebo groups. But a lot of those women might mistakenly believe the changes were due to the shot because of the timing.

Menstruation was NOT information that was captured in the trials. Literally was not asked. Also cancer patients and autoimmune patients were not included in trials. Trials did not capture everything.

This is a very real issue, not just random anecdotes. My OB told me as much. And there are now studies looking into it.

That is false. I’m a woman who was in a trial.

Thank you for volunteering for the trial!

So they did ask about menstrual changes in trial, or was it filed under "other"?

I wonder how many woman reported this in the trials. The part that bothers me is that I didn't see it reported as a possible effect anywhere until many of us had already gotten our shots and experienced it. And even then, we were told it was likely just a result of "stress." I have been under a lot of stress in my life, and the only thing that made my period disappear for that long (other than pregnancy) was a bout with anorexia in my teens. I'm still very confused about why this should happen for such a prolonged period post-vaccination and haven't yet heard any convincing hypotheses.

My 24yo DD had a longer cycle with heavier periods for a few months after her Pfizer shots. She got the booster in October and I was with her in November when she got her first period afterwards, and she said it was on time and normal.

We had to provide weekly health reports, there were monthly check ins over the phone, and in person visits several times a year. They were super detailed, to the point that if I took Tylenol for a headache six months after the shot, I still have to tell them the exact date and dosage. Trial subjects had to report any change in general health, as well as any visit/consultation with a medical provider of any kind.

Which manufacturer was this for?

Have you seen your doctor? This doesn't sound vaccine related.

[Anonymous]

I stopped ovulating after my second shot. I track my cycle very closely and am still considering having another child. Since weaning my youngest a year ago I have had very regular cycles. Missed one period, then missed ovulation again. I saw my OB and found my hormones were really off balance (I’d always had normal hormone panels prior). She recommended some supplements and I started ovulating again the next month. Since then my periods have been mostly normal, but I have shorter cycles and my hormone levels aren’t stabilized yet.

Jesus, PP. Try decaf next time.

This is why I was asking -- if you're 33, of course not. But if you are 45, well that's an different story. There isn't much disucssion about perimenopause, what it looks like and when it kicks in, so, as someone who has just gone through this, its highly worth visiting your gyno to see if that is the issue.

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.

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?

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.

no one noticed a cycle change within 24 hours.

I am the PP whose period lasted for 49 days (pre-vax periods were reliably 4 days long) and whose periods since have lasted 10-20 days, and it all began within 24 hours of getting my first Pfizer shot. Tell my honestly, would you not suspect a possible connection in my case?

This is what freaks me out - that no one cares abouT issues related to women, and that the experts dismiss women's concerns.

wondering too

[Anonymous]

Mine stopped for six months after my first shot. It eventually came back but a lot heavier.

[Anonymous]

Mine changed and shortened, going from 35 days to 28 days. No big deal, but interesting. Been 34-35 days my whole life. Took 5 months to normalize.

However, I’m not getting the booster. The shots trigger vertigo in me (I had this before 2020) and ironically my covid breakthrough case wasn’t a big deal. I can’t risk a worse case of vertigo again.

Plus, omicron - haven’t you heard of all the cases including in people with three shots? Doesn’t seem compelling. Utilize your T cell immunity stop focusing on antibodies.
