What Are The Side Effects Of Duromine 30 Mg In Menstruation?

Good Day. I am. 27 years of age and currently on Duromine 30m, My period is late 12 days today. I usually get my period like clockwork every month right down to the time of day I should expect it, which is the 11th of every month between 1pm-3pm. My question is could the duromine be causing this or could I in fact be pregnant? I am not on any contraceptives, but my partner and I use condoms religiously. Thank you, I ll wait on your reply.

Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

First of all do not panic.

You are right in guessing that Duramine has effects on altering your cycles.It can cause early or late periods. This is because of its effects on fat metabolism in the body, leading to changes in estrogen hormone levels.

As you were using barrier contraceptive method like Condom, chances of getting pregnant are almost nil. But I will suggest you to get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. In case of any doubt blood beta HCG test and USG will be of help.

In my opinion, please do not use oral contraceptive pills along with Duramine, but
I will suggest you to continue to use condoms as contraceptive method ot Intrauterine contraceptive device like Copper T in future, as these methods will not get affected by Duramine.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
