Wellbutrin Missed Period (Page 2)

I don't care what the research states:
Wellbutrin causes your period to be late. I'm usually on time with my period, been taking the medicine 2 x a day (300mg) for 6 weeks now, still no period. I took 2 pregnancy test both negative. Several women on blogs are experiencing this same problem. I'll post again after I get my period, so you can have a timeline. I hope this helps.
Oh my lanta lol thank you dear baby Jesus ??! I have been full on freaking out! I'm so glad I decided to Google it lol
Also have been very regular and am about a week late after being on Wellbutrin xl for 4.5 weeks
Omg same! I never post on these kinds of things but I’m almost a week late right now. I could be pregnant but am testing negative. When I was pregnant before, I was positive days before my missed period
Yeah it’s happening to me too, just started Wellbutrin 2/3 weeks ago and late for my period. I’m glad I’m not alone in this! Hopefully it doesn’t become too messed up, I like to be able to predict it
Literally I was freaking out thinking that maybe I was pregnant but it was literally impossible I am now almost 7 days late and I’m cramping but no blood then on Wellbutrin for almost a month now so yeah I do believe it causes your period to be late. PERIOD. 24years old/5’7/180
Re: Kerri (# 6)
I am currently dealing with the same thing. Now that I am taking it consistently I am now a week late for my period!
I’ve been on Wellbutrin 300 mg once a day for about a month and I’m also a solid week late on a period. I had my tubes tied several months ago so I’m not too worried about pregnancy but my cycle is always really regular so I wondered if the medication was to blame.
Hi! I have been on wellbutrin 300 mg once a day since February. Before Wellbutrin I was very regular in my cycles but now I barely have some light bleeding every 50 days ca. or not period (bleeding) at all. I took several pregnancy tests and all were negative. So it seems to be this is a side effect too (as nausea, headache...)
I was taking Wellbutrin XL 150mg for 6 weeks now and i got 2x my period every 2 weeks almost... I didn't have that problem before. Anybody else have the same experience as me? It's so weird...
This is so true. I'm not sure when you posted this but I've been on it for 2 months and still no period. I was worried as well several pregnancy test. All negative thank God. I'm not worry to much next month I will follow up with Primary care. This alone stresses you out.
But what about having NO period. Mine is not lengthened... I am 8 days late!
Menstrual irregularities are listed in the detailed side effect information and many of the antidepressants tend to lengthen the menstrual cycle in women. Your period may also be slightly heavier and last a little longer than normal.
