What Causes Irregular Periods After Taking Kenalog And Rocephin Shots?

I got a kenolog and rocephin shot twice in January for a chronic sinus infection. My periods stopped last one was January 29. They started again March 20 and have still not stopped. Dr says it s because of shots I received. I am not going heavy very light occasionally. How long will it take for my period to go back to normal. Is this dangerous.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with irregular menstrual period following the intake of kenalog and rocephin I am suggesting strongly that this is definitely caused by the kenalog

Kenalog has a generic name called triancinolone a steroid In injection preparation that is used to treat patients with keloid and joint arthritis so one of its side effects is alteration in menstrual cycle

Requesting if your menses will be regular is definitely yes it will be regular due to the kenalog has short half life
I find this answer helpful
