Hey there,
I have a rather important question in relation to the Effexor that I started taking roughly 7 weeks ago. Ever since I began taking the medication I have been having a constant period. I was on my period when I started taking it, but all the way until my next period I continued to menstrate (although it was not as much as normal, but a significant amount nonetheless). It is enough that I can tell the difference from it and my actual period. As you can imagine this is quite annoying and probably very bad for me in the long run. I have been wanting to talk to my Pdoc about this, but Ive been putting it off because I had not read about it being a rare symptom until a few days ago, and my Pdoc is in Peru at the moment. Please give my some advice on what to do and as to whether this a serious sign of something wrong with me and the medication. I am very afraid that I will have to stop taking it because although I cannot tell an extreme difference in my mood, I can tell some, and therefore would be dissapointed if I had to quit. Also, if any other women have experienced this while taking it I would much appreciate your experiences. Thanks!
