Period after cancelled cycle?

[Yaya7784]

Hi everyone, first time poster here but long time learner on the forum!

I had a cancelled cycle on second cycle, on day 8, due to lack of growth of follicles.

I also had cancelled cycle first time (had two dominant follicles) because I ovulated early, around day 9. That time, my period turned up right on schedule after 2 weeks.

But this time, it’s been 39 days since last period. I’m always pretty regular - 26 to 28 days.

I know the period after a cancelled cycle can be turn up a bit less regular than normal or be missed completely. Anyone have any advice? And I should mention this to clinic?

Also, wondering if it has anything to do with taking melatonin (whether it’s been messing up my hormones).

Been taking it since May but stopped last week as I figured out hot flushes I was getting at night for last couple of weeks were actually to do with taking melatonin (and less to do with the warm weather or perimenopause, I’m 46).

As soon as I stopped taking the melatonin, the hot flushes stopped and also I realised I had been getting a bit of a dizzy nauseous feeling in the night time after taking it.

Thanks!

As you say the medication/hormones can mess up your cycle and it can take a couple of months before it returns to whatever is normal for you But best let your clinic know the situation
