The OP and everyone who is posting here is silly. What do you hope to accomplish? Most of us had no change. But we aren’t going to come here to post that because you all seem unhinged and obsessive. Find something else to obsess over.

Exactly.

I am late 20s, got Pfizer. My cycle was not affected at all.

Very few people lost here in their 20s. It’s not a forum for young 20s. But I am just 36, mine has been irregular since my 2nd dose (tracker says the month after the 2nd shot my cycle was only 21 days; between July and august it was 30) and I think it’s pretty unlikely that having just turned 36 six weeks ago I am simply perimenopausal. That doesn’t mean the vaccine is bad or that I won’t still get the booster. It’s just an honest discussion of what it has done to our cycles.

Ok. Thanks for sharing. There’s always one person in the group who knows nothing but has to chime in.

That’s just perimenopause

Don’t know why you would say this. My cycle is now shorter, 24 days, that’s a fact. I would still get my vaccine 1 million times over but it’s interesting to hear from other women who are noticing the same thing.


Correlation doesn’t equal causation. I had a nagging injury for several months. The day after I got my first shot, it was completely gone and has never come back. I guess it must have been the vaccine according to your logic.


Why are some people so hellbent on not believing that there could be a connection? Why is this a problem for you if the vaccine has an effect on cycle length?


Agree it is so bizarre!! Speaks volumes about those women and the vaccines. They don't want to believe there could
Be any negative press for their precious vaccines. It's scary!


I was the PP and you kind of missed my point. I love those precious vaccines but my cycle’s been completely different since I got it. It doesn’t have to be negative press, it’s just... can we talk about this?

I'm not one of those women (I'm post-menopausal), but come on. We have a huge public health problem because so many people refuse to vaccinated after reading bogus information on the internet. Their stupid decision making is a risk to all of us, be it from new variants popping up or the overwhelmed hospitals that can't care for non-Covid patients adequately.

It is perfectly reasonable to be concerned about negative press. This is not to say this shouldn't be thoroughly investigated. Of course it should.


We can easily say “it might mess with your cycle “ and “it’s still worth getting it.” Both can be true.

Except when you have OBs fielding more calls about cycle issues than ever before, that might be an indication. Thousands of women on health boards about this.

Dear PP - At what point, are we allowed to speak of this ?

Or it’s just normal unexplained hormonal fluctuations that occur ALL THE TIME and now people have something to pin it on.


DP. No cmon. For the record I am glad I got the vaccine, will get a booster if needed, but these are not normal fluctuations for many of us and it’s a lot of women experiencing it. Don’t gaslight us. We aren’t saying the vaccine is bad or this is even a particularly bad side effect but nobody needs to pretend it isn’t happening.

I had moderna in Jan and feb. irregular since then. Some months on time, some months late. June was 3 days late. July normal. August currently 4 days late. I’m 36. It is what it is! I think definitely it disrupts cycles for some women. It’s not the end of the world but it’s a thing.

Ignore those posters and they should be reported. Horrible treatment of women. I am vaccinated and my period has been fine but I would
Never silence anyone having an issue of any kind.
