Well her I'am crying again. My meds have been reduced to 5mg. I have had my period for three weeks in a roll. just one or two days each week but still. I told the doctore before that everytime they change my meds i have my period. They say it s not related but I do it any way. Stress level is sky high my son and his daughter are moving in this week. I thought we were thru raising kids but I guess not. Having trouble with profusely sweating and O,Yea crying. I love my granddaughter and son and his wife has put them thru a terrible time and All this has tore me up. Anyway does anybody notice a change in their period at meds changes. I'm 57 shouldn't be having it at all.
My aunt was in her late 50s and still cycling. She didn't have any thyroid problems that I was aware of. I am going to be 50 in a few months and I am still cycling. It's heavier when I am a bit hypO.
Are you still a bit hypO? How much were you on before 5 mg? I do better when I make smaller dosage changes. If too large or not at the right time to make changes, I break out in sweat, stress, etc.
