symptoms from epidural steroid injection

I had an injection on 6/12/08 for bulging discs. My period was late approx. 8 days. I started my cycle on June 28 and now it is July 28 and it has not stopped. I saw my pain mgmt. dr. and she said my cycle will be effected. Usually one only flows for a few days longer. I will see my ob/gyn later today and wanted to know has anyone had this problem or am I the only one?

My gynecologist made me take a hormone blood test to see if my body is changing and also took a biopsy of my cervix to see if there is an underlying problem. Pelvic exam went okay. He can not say for sure if it has to do with the injection I received. Now, I wait 3 weeks for the labs to come in and see what is going on with my body.  Thanks for the concern.
