Have H Pylori, Missed Periods. Is There Any Connection?

My doctor has recently told me I have h pylori. I also had hormonal tests done due to the fact that I haven t had a menstrual cycle since January and it is now December! He said some of my hormone levels were high and referred me to an endocrinologist but I was just wondering could the lack of periods be caused by the hp? And when I start to take antibiotics for the infection will my periods come back? Thanks

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
H.pylori has nothing to do with the endocrines, and vice versa.
The lack of periods may be due to the anemia,infection, or P.C.O.S,and other harmone disturbances.
I advise you to consult a gynecologist for diagnosis and treatment.
Take more of green leafy, vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and
protein rich foods,to assist the treatment.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

H. Pylori basically infects gastric mucosa and results in symptoms due to increased acid secretion.

H. Pylori infection is not related to hormonal variation. Treatment for infection and onset of bleeding could be incidental. You need to get evaluated for hormonal variation and get treated for it.

Hope this helps you.

Regards
