UTI

CAN U.T.I AFFECTS MENSTRUAL CYCLE?

[Arti Sharma, M.D.]

Hi there!
An UTI is infection of the urinary tract while menstruation is shedding off of the endometrial tissue from the reproductive tract. Any stress, any infection can affect your hormonal levels leading to a change in the period pattern. A sudden change in medications can also affect your periods. All these conditions can lead to delayed periods. Recurrent infections can lead to anemia of chronic infections and thus delay your periods. Do keep us posted.
Take care and regards!
