“Effect of covid-19 vaccine on menstrual cycle or periods” a question which has been discussed in social media recent times . Some of the women are experiencing changes in their period after getting vaccinated for
covid-19 . This has raised many questions which cannot be answered with
its facts.
It seems that most of the reports of the covid vaccines are that they are
showing up periods quickly and experiencing more pain than usual. But
these period changes are not official and unverified. Some period
irregularities are not because of covid infection , but nothing has been
officially stated. Unfortunately there is nothing in vaccine clinical trial
data regarding menstrual changes.
In General women’s menstrual cycles are affected due to different factors
- Changes in diet
- Changes in exercise
- Due to stress
- Due to lack of sleep
- Taking some medications
Women have more immune response than men, but many feel worse after
any vaccination. The stress on immune response also can affect your
periods. Hormones act as a signal to your brain during the menstrual
cycle and those signals can be disturbed when the body is affected by an
infection or even a vaccine.
What does data say so for ??
Again clinical data trail says that it does not include period changes in
women after covid vaccination . However the information available does
not indicate that there were any menstrual side effects that were serious.
Also, there is no publicly available information to say that the effect of covid-19
vaccine on the menstrual cycle after vaccination are long-lasting
and serious. Researchers at the University of Illinois are currently
collecting data on period changes which are possibly related to the
COVID-19 vaccines in this survey.
At the end of the day, women should know about the
effect of covid-19 vaccine on the menstrual cycle or Periods : some may experience period irregularities
after getting vaccinated. There is currently no indication that these
changes will continue or endanger your health. Experts agree that the
potential of a period change should not be used as an excuse to avoid
vaccination. If you notice a change in your period that doesn’t go away, or
if you’re experiencing unusually heavy bleeding, see your doctor to be
sure it’s not anything else.
Does COVID Vaccine affect fertility in women?
Another myth going on is that , after taking covid vaccine, the menstrual
cycle could affect fertility. As of now there is no reason to believe that it
is true – for the vaccinated people or people nearby.
Nowadays people believe in the things which they see in social media.
There is no reason to believe that people who are vaccinated will
experience reproductive problems. Such claims are not true .
If you are considering pregnancy it may be scary. Pregnancy is a risk
factor during severe covid illness . so experts believe vaccination reduces
the risk.
Final Verdict :
It is not exactly clear why women are experiencing period changes after
covid vaccination. More research is needed to find the possible link.
These changes should not be the reason to skip the vaccination. At Last,
there is no evidence to say that covid-19 vaccine causes infertility.
