Can MMR Vaccine Affect The Menses Cycle In Females?

I recently located to a new place and time zone. I also took a shot of MMR vaccine a short while after relocating. Could this be the reasons for my over one month menstrual cycle delay? Im definately sure I m not pregnant since I haven t had sex since my last menstrual flow.

Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

As you have stated that there is chance of pregnancy , as a cause for your delay in the menstrual cycle, you need not worry about pregnancy.
Secondly, there is no effect of MMR vaccine that will lead to delay in the menstrual cycle. In my opinion, change in your workplace location and time zone can have impact on hormones responsible for menstrual cycle.

You can simply wait for the onset of menses, or you can opt for progesterone withdrawal. Please seek prescription support from your treating doctor, for 5 to 7 days course of Regestrone tablets, and get informed about the withdrawal bleeding.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
