Hello, Welcome to Ask a doctor services. I have read your query.
No, Bromocriptine has no side effects to cause irregular menstruation. Since you have been having irregular menstruation, medical conditions that may cause such a symptom is hormonal problems, thyroid issues, anemia, PCOS, etc.
You are suggested to visit a gynae get clinically assessed. Get all blood & imaging tests done. Your treatment will depend upon the pathology detected.
Hope I have answered your query. Take care.
