A member asked:
Can having a yeast infection caused by antibiotics cause a shorter or lighter period if you took the antibiotics and it a few days before your period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yeast infections: Don't normally cause a lighter period. However, the illness you were treating with antibiotics may have stressed your body sufficiently to impact your period. Take care.
