Hi all, just a quick one...
My oncologist told me that chemo would affect my fertility and a friend said that her periods stopped altogether for the duration of her treatment, then didn't come back for 2 years. I've now had 2 cycles of EC and started a period this morning, having not had one for 7 weeks. Does anyone know if this is normal?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there
I had EC and had two periods then they stopped . The first period was normal then the next was light but went on for ages ! I haven’t had a period now in a year . I’d say what you’re experiencing is totally normal
good luck with the rest of your chemo
