effexor and your period

Could coming off an anti-depressant like Effexor cause a change in your menstrual cycle?  I have been lightly spotting for four days, but never fully started.  I completely weened off Effexor two weeks ago.

Been there,done that. Yes,it can...however it could still be something else.
If you miss your period next month,or if the same thing happens again,go in and see a doctor.
