HI
Well come to HCM
If you are one hormone therapy so such irregular period may be very likely and this is least concern whether you are taking this regularly or not but you may going to face the irregular menses later or sooner, if this persistence then you need to see the gynecologist but this comes to normal just wait for some time, hope this information helps, take care.
