From 46kg last June 16 naging 44kg nalang po ako nung June 23. I was diagnosed po with Pulmonary TB. Inactive naman yung bactiria and wala po akong ubo. I was prescribed with 3 tablets of Fixcom4 every morning. Pero, napansin ko po na delayed yung period ko. Last period ko po e nagstart nung May 27. 32 po ang average cycle ko, pero di pa rin po ako nagkakaperiod hanggang ngayon. possible po kaya na may epekto yung gamot na iniinom ko sa menstrual cycle ko? Salamat po!


Topic: From 46 kilograms last June 16, I became just 44 kilograms on June 23. I was diagnosed with Pulmonary Tuberculosis. The bacteria is inactive and I don't have coughs. I was prescribed 3 tablets Fixcom4 every morning. But I noticed that my mensrual period got delayed. My last period was on May 27. My average menstrual cycle is 32 days, but I still don't have menstruation until now. Could the medicine have anything to do with this or cause this?

nakakaapekto po talaga ang TB medications sa regla. nakakabawas din po ng bisa sa mga oral contraceptives ang gamot na rifampicin kaya mas makakabuti pong iwasan ninyo ang pagbubuntis sa panahon ng gamutan ninyo.
