missed periods?

[Guest guest]

I have a question. I haven't had a period in 3 months and i'm

wondering if my pancreatitis can be causing this. I'm not pregnant,

cause I had a test done by the doctor and i'm on the pill. I've

been eating okay. Not the greatest, but I have been managing to

have some meals. What could be causing this?

When I last went to the doc 2 weeks ago my lipase was 691 and BUN

was 2.1. They did a fasting blood sugar test and I was normal. I

still havent' had my EUS done and i'm waiting for gall bladder

surgery to be done sometime next year. My new meds which i've been

on for the last 3 months are MS contin 30mg every 12 hours,

amytripiline 10mg once daily and maxeran 10mg TID. Any body have

any idea what could be doing this. I haven't lost more than 5 lbs

maybe in the last 3 months. Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks, Jen.

Jen-

Hello. I really don't have an answer for you. I noticed that after

I started having a lot of problems, it really messed up my cycles,

sometimes I went without a cycle for 2-3 months, then I would have 2

within 3 weeks. I am sure it has something to do with the amount of

pain, pain meds and just the general ill feeling (none of my systems

want to work right!)I wish I could help you more, but maybe just

knowing that others have similar situations will be of some comfort.

Hi Jen,

It could be possible that is induced by your pill.

Others meds also may cause amenorrea (missed periods) like Motilium for

example.

In past I have it but I was not on pills. In fact I had hormonal imbalance.

This year I was on Nuvaring to treat some ovarian problems but I had the

oposite, irregular bleeding and I had to stop them.

I think it's good to see your gyn and check if everything is right, and talk

about the meds you're on.

All the best,

Liane
