Can Pain Medicines Prescribed For Knee Replacement Delay Periods?
I had a total knee replacement surgery on August 25. I started my period on August 29th. I was due to start my period over 3 weeks ago and it hasn t started and I have no symptoms. I did have my tubes tied 16 yrs ago. What are the odds I m pregnant? Or could the pain meds be delaying it?

HI, I understand your concern. Any physical/ psychological is known to cause hormonal disturbance . You already had tube s tied for family planning. so very less chances of pregnancy. The psychological stress must have disturbed your menstrual cycle. thanks,
