I'm taking metronidazole will that make my period light?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It does in some: women but I would not count on that. It is used to treat infections especially vaginal infections so I am not sure what it will do to your periods. It does have a nasty side effect if you drink any type of alcohol with it on board. Beware :) Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
