I am 4 months post TBI and still havent gotten my period. My doctors checked an HCG to make sure i wasnt pregnant (which i knew i wasnt). They said it will just take time to heal before i start getting it again. Anyone have this problem?

No, but that's a side effect I could live with Do you still have any PMS-like symptoms? Backache, cramps?

Neurologist said she'd never heard of it happening before....

I never get PMS type symptoms except for maybe some bloating. I am definetly ok with not getting it, except it gives me anxiety because i always wait for a week for it to come when i take the sugar pills and it never does.

nightnurse,

It might be worth finding a good women's health/hormone specialist to check you out. All hormones are regulated in the brain. A dysfunction could be causing other symptoms. Check out https://www.womensinternational.com/..._referral.html for a good referral in your area. Your BC pills may be not right for you while you are still healing.

btw, I am a serious believer in women getting good hormone advice beyond the generic advice from most OB/GYN's. It changed my wife back into the woman I married 31 years ago. Bad hormones make for poor stress tolerance.

My best to you.

i don't know what's happened exactly, but since the whiplash, a lot of weird stuff has happened and the neurologist who told me i have a psychiatric problem is full of it...
