I am a 40 year old woman who is under treatment for sle (lupus) for the past several years. Recently I noticed my period is about a month late. I am not pregnant. I have not had this issue before and also my periods have been slightly irregular. I take hcqs, mycophenolate mofetil, omnacortil 5 mg, calcium, thyronorm and stanlip. Please advise.

Hello shalini , this is because of your medications, i think now its time to switch ayurvedic medications , for sle because long term steroids aur other medicines you are already taken is very hazardous to your body. This is alarming sign .

This could be because of perimenopausal age. wait for one more month. If still no periods, get an ultrasound scan done.

It is important to rule out thyroid and the irregularity could also be a premenopausal symptom. What is the problem you are facing on account of sle? Menopause begins around 42 to 45 years of age but the symptoms related to its commencement can appear earlier. So keep eveything in mind. For detailed discussion and advice you can contact me.
