What Causes Light Menstrual Bleeding After Taking Flagyl?
I ve been on birth control for the past two years and have have normal periods with normal flow for me. I just started taking flagyl during the week I was supposed to start and my period has been super light. I m just wondering if this is normal with this medication?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that the infection itself is causing the change in your cycle. Any physical stress or illness can cause a change in the frequency or intensity of the period.
Medication can also have this effect but this is not a known effect of this medication.
I hope this helps
