Vyvanse is a central nervous system stimulant used in patient of ADHD. Usually there are side effect related to the male genital dysfunction and many system of the body. Precautions to be taken for the pregnant and lactating mothers .But no where in the literature is mentioned about the disturbed menses. Better you should consult your gynecologist to rule out any other disorder .
