Question: Hello, and thank you for reading, I'm DEEPLY despaired! Last month, on the 10th day of my menstrual cycle, I developed an abscess in my mouth and I had to take 2 different Antibiotics, Amoxicillin and Metronidazole for 7 days. Everything was fine until I should have started my menstruation, between the 25th and the 30th day, but it came late on the 35th day and started with only old brown blood. So after 2 more days the real menstruation FINALLY started. I was so relieved until I started to realize that something was different. Normally I stop bleeding at the 6th day and then I normally have 2-3 days brown discharge, old blood, but this time I noticed on the the 7th and 8th day NO brown discharge but in the evening I had on the 7th and 8th day still pink blood on the paper after wiping, but no "flow". So I'm not bleeding anymore, it's one time per day, that I have a little "pink" on the paper. The last time, I had sex was 7 days before my menstruation started and I had NO ISSUES AT ALL! No bleeding, no pain, nothing. I have bacterial vaginosis, which I treat with the Multigyn Actigel and it's burning this time. When I took the antibiotics for the abscess in my mouth, it didn't burn AT ALL. I have no itchy feeling, no pain, nothing. Even the menstrual normal pain was way less, then usual. I called a friend in Germany who is a Dr and he said, that the Amoxicillin has an influence on the hormonal levels, and I shouldn't be that worried, but I still am. Before and during the menstruation I made pregnancy tests and they all came back negative. I am a very anxious person, with a strong fear of doctors. . Could this whole mess be very the result of the 2 antibiotics? Thank you very much!

Thank you VERY much for your reply!

I just have a theoretical question... COULD a hormonal imbalance fix itself, without taking something?

Thank you very much for your time and God bless you!
