According to the department of health, irregular or extended periods after vaccination are thought to be an immune response to the jab.
“Vaccines can cause an irregular menstrual cycle, and slightly heavier periods in some females: this is thought to be an immune response and only lasts for a month or two,” said the department. Last month, the Centers for Disease Control in the US responded to vaccine-related questions by people who asked if being near someone who received the vaccine influenced one’s menstrual period.Many things can affect menstrual cycles, including stress, changes in your schedule, problems with sleep, and changes in diet or exercise. Infections may also affect menstrual cycles,” it said.
