Question 1

is it normal to have late period when having a gardasil shot?

Accepted Answer

No relationship: Just because the Gardasil shot prevents infection by viruses that cause genital warts and some cervical cancers doesn&#x27;t mean Gardasil has any effects on menstrual periods, PMS, sex, pregnancy, etc...  The vaccine has no relationship to menstrual periods. The shot is given in the arm, and the antibodies are made by the immune system to offer protection throughout the body, not just at the genitals.

Question 2

i got a cortisone shot about 8weeks ago late period, possibly pregnant!?

Accepted Answer

Get pregnancy test: if you think there is a chance you are pregnant then, the only way to know for sure is to get a test done on the date of your next missed cycle. It is possible that a steroid shot could've altered your period coming down but if you had sex during your fertile days (Or during any time during your cycle) then, that is significant and should be the impetus for you to take the test.

late period by 2 weeks,haven't had sex since january.stopped th shot,periods every 15 days and now i missed it.took a preg test,negative.why no period?

Accepted Answer

Progesterone: From the information given, you stopped the depo shot. Progesterone takes up to 12 months to clear. As you recall, abnormal bleeding, bleeding every day or no bleeding at all or anything in between is entirely normal for progesterone only contraception.
