Cymbalta and late period

This discussion is related to Cymbalta and late period..


Can suddenly stopping Cymbalta cause your period to be late?  
I was taking 10mg every day for over a year.   I stopped a week ago, and now my period is three or four days late.

Does anyone else have an opinion or an experience?   I read a research study online that showed some women taking antidepressents can experience a lengthening or shortening of their cycle while on the medications.  Then when the medication is stopped, the cycle can return to "normal".   I've been on antidepressents for 7 1/2 years and just stopped.   Now my period is over a week late.   Could it be a link between seratonin and hormones?

I wouldnt think so, I was on Celexa and I had quit taking it to ttc. I never missed my period. Cymbalta is about the same as celexa, and so I dont think it would have anything to do with missed periods.

Have you done a hpt yet?
