Premature Menopause and Covid Jab

2 replies

Has anyone experienced this condition after getting the Covid-19 jab?

I had a very regular/normal cycle, got pregnant very easily and delivered in 2021 at 34 years old. Got the Pfizer jab right after having my baby, and didn't get a period for 15 months (chalked it up to breastfeeding). When it finally came back, it was very irregular (short/long cycles, very light, days of spotting beforehand) and I was subsequently diagnosed with premature ovarian insufficiency (premature menopause).

This was devastating. We were TTC again. I'm fit, eat very clean, and no history of any female issues at all in my family. My mother had her kids naturally at 37 and 39. I'm being told it "would have happened anyway", but it's hard to imagine that.

Just looking for answers/support, I guess.

No words of advice OP, but I'm 26 and haven't had a period since getting my Covid Booster 18 months ago.

All seemed very strange as it the only thing I can put it down to is the jab Sad

@getthemfromlidlme that's so frustrating, I'm so sorry. Hoping everything works out! I saw on another thread that some women have these cycle issues and come out of it.

I have two OBGYNs and while they differ on their opinions on the jab, they both say they've seen an increase in these issues "since COVID". To my knowledge, I've never had COVID, my gut just keeps telling me something is off about the timing of all this.

I highly recommend a functional/integrative doctor if you choose to pursue medical help.
