Spotting Following Cortisone Injection
Women's Health | Last Active: 3 days ago | Replies (127)Comment receiving replies
Hi , Iam so glad to hear that your dr was familiar with this happening after a steroid shot .Did your dr give you any indication as to why it happens ? I can’t do with out the back injections so my gynecologist is keeping an eye on me . I also have had all the test and have come up clear . However ,I would still like to know why it does that …Is it because the steroid shot is a hormone and interferes with the hormones in our bodies .? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks 😊

He just said it was to do with the steroid affecting oestrogen levels. I'm pretty certain it affects the hormones because that's exactly how I felt , very hormonal and periody (if that's a word ) I even said to my husband when I woke up the day it started, I felt like I was due a period, despite not having one for three years. I hope it doesn't cause you too many problems if you have to continue with the injections. I certainly won't be having them again unless it's absolutely vital. 🥰
