Was your period affected by COVID-19 vaccination?

[EasterBunny7]

I am trying to conceive and just taken my digest dose. I've heard from a couple of people that their first period was delayed by a week, and there were knock on effects on a few more.

Is that everyone else's experience?

Nope I got pregnant the month I had my first dose

Wow, congrats @Incywinceyspider! Wish I was as lucky as you :)

Correction to my original post: "digest" should read as "first"

It made my period 3 weeks late. But I got pregnant next cycle so it didn’t have any long term effects.

Didn't affect my period at all! Good luck with your TTC journey x

Nope. Periods stayed normal after 1st dose. Conceived immediately after second dose. Had booster whilst pregnant.

Nope, I got my BFP a week after my booster

I had 6 months of bleeding/spotting on and off after my 2nd AZ (couldn't tell what was a period and what was spotting).

I've now had a month of no bleeding which is flipping amazing 🎊

I've heard of a few others who have been affected in the same way, so I can see it might delay conception if I was trying.

I also got pregnant the same month I had my first dose. I think if anything it made me more fertile...

I got my BFP just after my first Astrazenica vaccine. Had a slight bleed after the jab, then another slight bleed about 2 weeks later (which was probably an implantation bleed, as I got a BFP a few days later)

Good luck!

I missed a period both times, but eent straight back to normal in the next cycle

Yes. First dose it made my period disappear for three months. Second and third dose it brought my period on almost immediately. Really weird.

No. It was affected though by covid which I had several months prior to the vaccination.

Nope no changes at all.

Would add that having covid did however change my periods to very short (18 day cycles) for a few months. Dr said body under pressure for some with covid it's the opposite!

I also got pregnant very soon after my first dose. And I've been considered infertile until now. I'm 44

I got an early period after my booster.

I had a random 3 week long period after my second dose. On the upside though my cycles had been really long and I wasn't ovulating after a miscarriage and pcos diagnosis but it seemed to reset after this and I've had regular cycles since.

No changes.

Definitely not trying to get pregnant but I’ve gone from being regular to all over the place. Anything from two weeks to six weeks between them since I had the first dose in March.

Nope

No. I was a little anxious about it as periods were very disrupted by a steroid injection a few months previously but Covid vaccine did nothing to them. I got pregnant the month after my second one. I’ve just had Covid at 21 weeks pregnant, very mildly so I’m glad to have been fully vaccinated!
