From: Two hip replacements and still going!

Subject: Periods

Has anyone else found that their periods are heavy or irregular? I was wondering if its a side effect of the medication or just me? I've never been regular since I started them at 13. I have the depo injection, which is meant to make them stop but in the last two weeks I've had two mega heavy ones, to the point of "flooding".

Hi
Ruth.

Im think it might be the MTX if your taking that, I think I felt slightly irregular and heavy after being on it for like 2 mths or so.

I can't be sure but it did feel like that when i was taking the MTX.

Take Care

Thanks Suz I was wondering if that might be the case as I increased my dose at the beginning of November. I'll have to ask my rheumatologist when I see him on Thursday.
