CareBear,
Sorry I didn’t post to you sooner. I don’t frequent the Health board much (but I probably should have paid more attention once I posted to it, huh?) I’m glad the others responded to you, as I don’t know that I would have been able to answer your specific question, anyway. It is helpful to know that psych drugs can affect hormones, though. I’ll keep that in mind when I’m talking to my pdoc and OB/GYN.
As for being embarrassed talking to your shrink (or any of your docs, for that matter) about it, try not to be. I know it’s hard, but the more information they have, the better they will be able to help you. It might help them to understand which one of the medications you’re taking is causing the irregular periods and then they can figure out how to counteract the side effect.
Take care,
All Done
