Leflunomide & premature menopause

Hi there, I'm 34 years old and on Leflunomide (Arava) and I honestly think that I may be experiencing early menopause. I am usually very on time but this is now the second time in the last few months when I have missed a period. I experience all the symptoms but the actual period doesn't come. I am also taking Cymbalta for fibro so I'm unsure if this is caused by the medications or not. I am sterilized and definitely not pregnant either. I would like to know if anyone else is experiencing something similar to me please. Thanks Aisha
