Covid-19 vaccine: Studies find menstrual changes are temporary
Many women have reported changes to their periods after a Covid-19 vaccination and the US National Institutes of Health has allocated more than $1.6 million dollars for research into a possible connection.
Now, two new observational studies published in the British Medical Journal provide reassuring data, suggesting that any changes are short-lived and small compared with natural variation in normal menstruation cycles.
Victoria Male, a lecturer and reproductive specialist at Imperial College London has looked at these findings.
