Can Taking Letrozole Result In Menstruation Issues?

Hi doctor, I have started taking letrozole for the first time and after taking 4 (2.5 mg) tablets (like 2+0+2) my period stopped. Usually it stays for 3-4 days but now my period stopped in second day. Is it any kind of side effect of taking letrozole ?

Hi,

Slight menstrual irregularities can happen with Letrazole especially in the early days of usage.

Generally, it will settle on its own.

If the symptoms persist for long, you can consult a gynecologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
