Question: I just had sinus surgery, taking medrol and have not had a period since 2006. Could this cause heavy clear discharge then light bleeding?

Hello,

Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.

Yes, one of the rare side effect of medrol is light vaginal bleeding and watery discharge. As long as it is non-foul-smelling, you need not worry.
It will stop once you discontinue the medication.

Hope this answers your query.
Feel free to ask if you need further clarifications. I will be happy to help.

regards,
Dr Nilofer
