A member asked:
Can taking iodine or dim supplement cause a missed period? how long after stopping supplement would period resume?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not due to: supplements. It is not likely that the supplements caused the missed period. The supplements are also not necessary. Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.
