A member asked:

Can decreasing quetiapine to 150mg from 450mg suddenly stop my periods?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Usually not: Usually it is the other way around. Lowering the dose of antipsychotic medications causes more cyclic regularity due to less prolactin levels in the body. Perhaps there are other things going on. It would be good to get an evaluation by a doc to see if you are pregnant or have some other emdical condition.
