The study, which sought to shed light on reports of unusual menstrual bleeding after receiving SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, surveyed more than 39,129 adults online after they were double-vaccinated against the virus.
It found that 42 per cent of people with regular menstrual cycles bled more heavily during their period after having the vaccinations than they had previously. Women reported having heavier periods after having the COVID-19 vaccine. (Nine) It further found that some people who do not usually menstruate, such as those on long-acting reversible contraceptives or gender-affirming hormones and those who have experienced menopause, reported breakthrough bleeding.
Study author Katharine Lee and her colleagues said the changes were not unexpected.
“Generally, changes to menstrual bleeding are not uncommon or dangerous, yet attention to these experiences is necessary to build trust in medicine,” they wrote in journal Science Advances.
The researchers highlighted that many study participants observed the changes to their menstrual cycles more than a week after vaccination, which is beyond the period when adverse symptom reporting is closely monitored during trials for vaccine reactions.
Vaccine trial protocols do not usually monitor beyond seven days post-vaccination and follow-up communications do not typically inquire about menstruation. University of Auckland Associate Professor Helen Petousis-Harris said the study’s findings were not surprising, with several studies having suggested women had a change to their period in the month after being vaccinated against COVID-19.
“It is very common for women’s periods to vary, particularly during stressful times and changes to a period after receipt of a vaccine has been documented many times over more than 100 years – so the phenomena is not new,” she said.
“It is well established that getting even a mild cold can delay a period.”The associate professor said the findings were absolutely not a reason to delay or avoid a COVID-9 vaccine.”The important message is it […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
