S/o of the other post asking if covid vaccine affected your period, heavy bleeding, later period, earlier period etc.

If you had covid or the covid vaccine was your cycle affected.

No. I had the vaccine, Pfizer, both doses and have noticed no difference. Bleeding was maybe a bit on the longish side but that has happened many times before, so I think it's not connected.

It’s not really out long enough to see if it affected your cycle... unless you mean if it affected like 1 period so far

I don’t see how the vaccine could effect your period. But it makes sense and doctors confirmed my suspicion to me that COVID could.
I had COVID in March which definitely caused some neurological symptoms of unusual headache, confusion etc. I suspect that it effected my hormone balance either thyroid or thymus. I started hemorrhaging on a regular basis until I ended up needing surgery to control it. I already had underlying issues there but after COVID the treatment I was using till then stopped working.

Cyan, what's the explanation for covid affecting your cycle?

COVID is a virus that effects multiple organs of your body. I believe I had symptoms of brain swelling. The thymus gland is located in your brain. It could also have effected my thyroid function. Both of these control our hormones.

This is just a theory but my doctor said it makes sense but too early to prove.

I didn't have covid but I was having some issues with weird cycles or heavy spotting and lots of in-between spotting when I called my Dr one thing he asked if I had covid. In my case it was hormonal as as soon as I completely weaned and switched pills no more issue

My cycle was messed up for about two to three months after I got Covid , even though I was on the pill and got my period like clockwork. But it has since fixed itself.

I had a delayed period and more intense cramping than usual for my period that started 2 weeks after my second shot (Moderna).

The thymus gland is located behind the sternum -- between the lungs, just under the collarbone.

All over the map ranging from 28 to34. No rhyme or reason . Never a vest kavuah.
