What Causes Irregular Menstruation After Taking A Cortisone Injection?

Hi I took a cortisone injection on my shoulder joints for inflammation. I was due for my cycle on 13 th or 14 th of August. Usually I have symptoms before getting my cycle. But this time there is no symptom and its past my due date still I didn t get my cycle. I am worried is it because of the injection? Please advice.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi,

For investigations of irregular menstruations, you may be asked for hormonal work up like FSH, LH, Oestrogen, Progesterone, Prolactin, etc.

Before hormonal checkup, you will be examined internally to find any organic disease like infection or cyst-Ultrasonography also will reveal a good amount of information regarding your internal organs (and even pregnancy also).

Avoid stress, take a healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
