Pfizer during period

How has this affected people? I am reading up on it and worried if to change my vaccination date to one around while I'm not on my period. Feels like a lot of articles written by men seem to say it's simply 'stress' causing issues surrounding periods and the vaccine so I'm not sure what to do.

I’m on mine and had the second dose yesterday. Not much change to be honest! Though did have a bit of a lighter flow Hmm

Had mine on day 2. Didn't effect it at all.

I wouldn't have put mine off.

There is no reason to put it off because you have your period.

Strange you ask this as I've been mulling it over in my head. I had mine on day 2 of my period and it pretty much stopped apart from some spotting. This has never happened before. Still had all the cramps etc though. Could be the vaccine or I also suspect I am heading towards peri menopause so I guess I won't ever really know. Definitely not a reason to delay your vaccine though

No change. Had the jab on day 1 and have had 2 cycles since.

Had mine on day 2. My period pretty much stopped for 4 days then came back. Was strange but not worth cancelling for.
