Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
I can think of the following reasons for your
abnormal menstrual bleeding -
1. Weight gain is a major factor .
2. Stress , anxiety, tension on the personal or professional front, late nights, erratic eating habits - do any of these apply ? They are all known causative factors.
3. Vyvanse itself is associated with irregular menstrual bleeding.
4. Caffeine too is implicated.
5. If you have been sexually active, do take a pregnancy test, to rule out an ongoing pregnancy, an ongoing
miscarriage, or ectopic pregnancy.
6. A new sexual partner / unprotected sex would not generally lead to heavy bleeding afterwards.
7. Thyroid hormone abnormalities, a cervical or uterine polyp, lesions or erosions on the cervix, uterine fibroids,
endometrial hyperplasia,
polycystic ovarian syndrome - these are all some conditions associated with irregular cycles and sporadic heavy bleeding.
If the bleeding does not subside in a couple of days / it recurs again next month, I would request you to have a gynaecological consultation.
You should have -
1. Internal check up - per vaginum and per speculum
2. Pelvic
ultrasound scan
3 . Hormonal levels - FSH, LH, TSH, Prolactin, OGTT, free
testosterone, DHEAS,
lipid profile.
4. A bleeding and clotting profile to rule out bleeding tendencies.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
