Has MJ affected anyone's cycle?

Just that really. My periods are like clockwork. 20th of the month, every month. However, last month I was a day late and this month, nothing yet. There is 0% chance that I am pregnant. Im not particularly stressed or worried about anything. The only difference is that ive lost nearly 3 stone since January using MJ. I know changes to diet and weight loss etc can mess with the cycle. Has anyone else experienced this? I do have PCOS but since coming off the pill and starting MJ they've always been regular.

maybe, I'm usually every 28 days, first month of mounjaro was as usual, month 2 I was 5 days late and 2 days late this month, but I'm 45 so it could be either peri or the mj

I’m way past menopause but understand that effects on the menstrual cycle are quite common on MJ. Fat cells store oestrogen so there is a bit of a release when you lose weight. Add in the anti inflammatory effects of the medication and it seems only logical that it might have an impact really.
