Can Prednisone mess with period??🤔

Question

Currently, I have been taking prednisone for really bad poison ivy. My period was due the day I started taking them. I have to take them for 11 more days. Could my period be stopped or late due to the steroids or should I be worried? 😪 (I’m 3 days late btw) 
I’m extremely tired, TMI but my nipples are red and they are sensitive, I’ve had really bad cravings but light light cramps that last like 30 seconds. Is it cause of the steroids/pms ??

Answer

Yes it can, I was on it for years because of my eczema and there would be months I wouldn’t have a period and that’s how I didn’t know I was pregnant with my daughter till almost 8 weeks. It screws with your cycles. It will go back to normal once you stop taking it but I took it for long term so your period should come back soon good luck 💙
