What Causes Irregular Periods Despite Taking Nuristerate?
Hello I was on nuristerate in 2013 had two shots then stopped. In 2015 May i got a shot but never returned after 8wks due to irregular cycle. From July i had menstrual cycles like 30 day, Aug27, Sept27, Oct29, Nov 30, Dec 33day cycles bt before May shot i had cycles ranging between 29 and 34. Could this mean my circles have not returned to their normal? I desperatly need a baby and have been tryinh without success. T I tried ovulation predictors but all came out negative. During the first five months after nuristarate i usually had breast sensitivity before periods but last month that was not felt.Thank you in advance Kind regard Grace

Good day and thanks for asking us to advice you. Hormonal contraceptives usually works by distrupting the hormones necessary for getting pregnant. I will suggest you see your doctor and do a hormone profile test checking for your estrogen, progesterone, prolactin and TSH level. I hope this helps. thank you.
