A member asked:
Can fluoxetine make your period late or miss?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Fluoxetine or similar medications should not make one's period come earlier or later than usual, assuming the woman's general health status has not changed due to the medication... meaning her eating, nutrition, and weight have stayed about the same lately.
