Chemical Induced Menopause
For the women, did anyone experience chemical-induced early menopause from chemotherapy or a bone marrow transplant? How are you handling this side effect? I know this side effect is heavily effective the young women dealing with cancer as well as something you are not too prepared for in the sense of managing this situation.
I never had another period after my chemo (RCH OP and D-HAP)
🫂🧡after my bone marrow transplant at 25yrs my period has not come back. I am 33yrs now. Who would have thought one of my prayers would be please God bring my period back 🙏🏾lol! The hormone unbalance really sucks and I want it back 😩🥺 our period really keeps things smooth 😥
I experienced a rapid menopause when I started treatment. It was crazy!! In a few months it was all over. A few billy goat hairs left behind for good measure. It was so intense that I wrote an article about it. I can't say that I miss my cycle at all, but there are ways of combatting hormone imbalances. I wonder if a trip to a gynecologist might give some good insight? I think it would be worth the visit.
yes I’ll make frequent trips to the gynecologist because of the hormonal imbalance, I have been prescribed medication 💊 and I keep up with my check ups. I would love to read your article! Do you happen to have a link?
It's a crazy ride! I'm glad you have someone to help you through it. I hope the medication brings relief. The article is kinda raw, but it helped me work through a few things. Here it is...https://blood-cancer.com/stories/code-red
I don’t mind the raw transparent it helps to see and hear someone’s real truth 💜🫂🐼 thank you for sharing your truth 🫶🏾✨💞
